[Red Mansions] Guide to "The Empress of the Wise"

Under the three trees, there is no such thing as a strong bone. The servants sent by the Chu family to the palace still have a sense of loyalty. It is a pity that Chu Cairen was spoiled and spoiled since he was a child. A person who would ask the imperial physician for every oily skin, panicked when he heard that His Majesty bestowed death on him. No, wait for Wang Shuo to send someone to ask, and shake off the matter like pouring beans before waiting for the instrument of torture.

Tu Geng is recuperating in Fuxi Palace now, the wife he just experienced is only thinking of him, and the concubine who only killed him does not care about the little suspicion before, and still lets Wang Shuo take care of the government.

While taking over the government, Wang Shuo took care of Tu Geng, and withered away at a speed visible to the naked eye, but Tu Geng was embarrassingly ill, and he was too embarrassed to see Tu Xu.There is no way to let Tu Xu come to serve the sick, so there is no way to help Wang Shuo reduce the burden.

"Take a rest, look at you, your eyes are black and blue now." Tu Geng is still resting in bed, reading a book boredly, Wang Shuo came in, seeing Wang Shuo so busy, he felt very distressed.

"I can still see it. I got up early and went out to wipe the meter score several times." Wang Shuo touched his face with his backhand.

"The courtiers are far away, so they shouldn't be able to tell." Thinking of his wife's exhaustion dealing with the courtiers, Tu Geng felt so distressed, he took Wang Shuo's hand and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

"You and I are a husband and wife, and we live in the name of my crown disciple Wang. After death, we both sleep in the same coffin and the same hole. Your business is my business. Why should you be so out of touch." Wang Shuo said with a smile.

"Yeah." Tu Geng nodded. Before hearing this, it was a bit off-putting, and he thought Wang Shuo was being too lenient, but now he heard it with genuine affection, much better than those who flattered him and only wanted to pluck wool from him.

"You have worked so hard, but I can't help you. It's hard work for you." Tu Geng sighed again, wishing he could say his hard work a hundred times, expressing his strange mixed feelings of regret, gratitude, and recovery.

"Then find someone to help me." Wang Shuo smiled.

"Who do you want?" Tu Geng asked, he just sighed casually, Wang Shuo climbed up the pole, who was he trying to promote, wouldn't it be her natal brother?

"Xu'er."

"Xu'er?" Tu Geng asked doubtfully, "You mean Xu'er? How can that be possible!" Tu Geng laughed loudly, saying that Wang Shuo was whimsical.

"Why is it so whimsical? Now that the government is busy, you have involved most of my energy. It is not convenient for Xu'er to wait in front of your bed. You can also see that my eyes are blue and black. I am too busy. If you want to talk about trust, Apart from us, Xu'er, can you find someone who is closer to us? Besides ability, Xu'er was also taught by famous scholars and Confucianists since childhood, and he is no worse than others. It's just that there was one or two things that he didn't understand at the time, maybe he couldn't learn it. ?” Wang Shuo said eloquently.

"But Xu'er is a princess." Tu Geng smiled wryly, "Where is a princess who participates in politics? Besides, she is still so young. I know your desire to have your son become a dragon and your daughter to become a phoenix, but our Xu'er grew up pampered, she knows What a national event."

"Anyone who is born knows everything, just learn it slowly." Wang Shuo sighed, and said quietly: "I have another idea, but I have some taboos." Wang Shuo glanced at Tu Geng anxiously, expressing this Hard to say.

"As you said, husband and wife are one, so just speak up if you have anything to say." Tu Geng said.

"You are sick this time, not only frightened me, but also the courtiers are in a hurry. Our family has three generations of emperors. Except for the first emperor, all of them died in their prime of life. Only the old brave king lived long in the clan. Your body is not very healthy. , I don’t need to mention it, I joined the army when I was young, so it’s inevitable that I’ve been wounded by knives and guns…”

"Why did you make such an ominous statement? Did someone say something?" Tu Geng interrupted.

"No, it's just that I suddenly feel that it's none of other people's business. Don't interrupt me, listen to me—we haven't got a son yet, even if the son is born in the future, he will be too young, so he will definitely not be able to go to court In managing politics, it would be better to let her sister stand in front of her head, so that she can protect her son at that time. Tell me, who is more suitable than Xu'er in terms of blood relationship and qualifications?" Wang Shuo asked, in case the emperor and empress have Anyway, at least there is a sensible princess standing in front of her, otherwise, it would really be a big deal for ambitious people.

"But... but, Xu'er is a princess!" Tu Geng kept repeating the same reason.

"What's the matter with the princess? There used to be things about the queen's administration, but it has happened since me." Wang Shuo was a little unhappy.

"Hey, hey, isn't this just being discussed? Why aren't you happy? It's a very important matter, you have to let me think about it." Tu Geng always felt that it was the courtiers' actions that made Wang Shuo respond like this, and he was afraid that it was Wang Shuo. Fighting for power and profit for himself, implying that the husband should have a son, so he sent Tu Xu to be the vanguard to question Wang Shuo, but Wang Shuo didn't say anything, Tu Geng thought about going down to investigate clearly before making a decision.

"How's the matter with that bitch Chu?" Tu Geng changed the subject.

"It hasn't been found out yet." Wang Shuo paused, twisting his cuffs unnaturally with his fingers, and said, "The imperial doctor said, you should think less and rest these days, and don't get angry, but a little Chu family, is it possible Don't you worry about me?"

If Tu Geng was familiar with Wang Shuo, he naturally knew that Wang Shuo was not telling the truth, but Tu Geng was quite able to put himself in another place now. He only felt that Wang Shuo was kind and obeyed the doctor's orders, and he didn't want to make him worry.Tu Geng didn't ask any more questions, Wang Shuo was also happy, and told him some important things about the court, and asked him for an idea.

After lunch, Wang Shuo went to the main hall to deal with government affairs. Tu Geng hurriedly called Zhao Xi in, and ordered him to check the movement in the court hall and the affairs of the Chu family.Zhao Xi grew up with Tu Geng as a confidant, and has the convenience of an internal prisoner. The secret guards in Tu Geng's hands have always been in Zhao Xi's hands.

Wang Shuo didn't mean to hide it from anyone, and he couldn't hide it. Zhao Xi soon came back after inquiring about it, and told him, "Mr. There are few people, so...so...your Majesty, please establish a crown prince early. If you still say that you have no heirs, you will adopt the clan."

Adopting a woolen thread means pointing at Tu Geng's nose and saying that he is incompetent and unable to give birth!Which man can tolerate pointing like this, Tu Geng said angrily: "Duke Chu! Who is it?" Tu Geng was puzzled, the person who dared to make such a shocking move is not unknown, but why he has no influence, normally there are only a few Dukes .

"The son of King Xiancheng, the youngest brother of Princess Qinghe, the late emperor named Chu Guogong." Zhao Xi reminded.

"It turned out to be him! A villain's behavior! A complete villain!" Tu Geng was so angry that he hit the bed board and coughed non-stop. !"

Tu Geng was so angry that he couldn't get his breath out, his face was flushed, and his head hurt like a pinprick.Tu Geng clutched his head and secretly regretted it. Unfortunately, he thought it was Wang Shuo who wanted to take the opportunity to fight for favor and pushed Tu Xu to the front desk. He didn't expect that Wang Shuo was really forced to do so. If he didn't push Tu Xu out, that person would have to choose someone from the clan. The master is loyal.

"I want this slut's life! Zhao Xi, go and deliver the decree, Chu Guogong speaks falsely about the emperor, deceives the crowd, disturbs the imperial court, and writes..."

"Your Majesty!" Before Tu Geng's orders were finished, Wang Shuo brought someone in, "Are you okay?" Wang Shuo trotted to the bedside, and hurriedly asked the following imperial doctor to take the pulse. The imperial doctor felt the pulse and said seriously: "Your Majesty's anger attacks the heart and stimulates the condition. I'm afraid he will still have a headache at night. The old minister can only suppress it. Now he can only take a decoction first, and then give the needle at night. 'Need to rest, don't get angry.' This old minister has repeatedly told, Your Majesty I really can't think too much about my condition, I'm afraid it will cause another headache. Since ancient times, the most difficult disease to treat is the head, Your Majesty~~"

The imperial doctor is also in a hurry. He has said [-] times not to think too much and get angry, but the patient is too big to listen. What can the imperial doctor do?

Wang Shuo supported Tu Geng to lean on the cushion at the head of the bed, waved away the imperial doctor and the attendants, stood up slowly, and kicked Zhao Xi aside with a sympathetic foot.

"You..." Tu Geng was also taken aback. As soon as he said something, Wang Shuo roared like a machine gun: "Zhao Xi! Are you really a confidant who grew up serving His Majesty? I think you have been bought by someone. How many times have I said it, follow the doctor's advice, follow the doctor's advice, it is the imperial doctor who understands His Majesty's body, or you, Zhao Xi, are the most capable. My Palace has issued a ban, and you are not allowed to mention this matter with Your Majesty. How dare you disobey my orders? !"

After Zhao Xi was kicked, he quickly turned around and knelt down, kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, forgive me, Your Majesty forgive me." According to the unspoken rules, generally the housewife will not touch the confidant servants around the master. What's more, Zhao Xi was following Tu Geng's order to do things. Zhao Xi felt that he had been wronged by this flying kick, but he didn't dare to argue, so he could only kowtow.

"Your Majesty, this is not the first time that Zhao Xi has committed a crime! Last time, a talented person from Chu used a booster drug to damage the dragon's body. Zhao Xi, as the chief steward, is well-informed. Can he just watch? I don't know. I wanted to save face with him, and I made such a big mistake in serving you, and I didn't change the person, but he got worse! I don't know how to persuade the Lord, but only blindly flatter, such a chief executive will come What's the use!" Wang Shuo was furious.

"I asked him to investigate." Tu Geng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Hearing Wang Shuo's words, he was also annoyed that Zhao Xi hadn't been loyal.

Wang Shuo ignored Tu Geng, and asked Zhao Xi, "Your Majesty's will conflicts with my order, why didn't you come to ask me? Could it be that you remember that when you were in Chu Cairen's Palace, I smashed a teacup for you, Did you deliberately conceal it and not report it?"

"I don't dare, I don't dare!" Zhao Xi kowtowed even louder. With his three guts, he didn't dare to confront the prosperous Wang Shuo. He was really only subconsciously loyal to Tu Geng.

"Forget it, Zhao Xi also obeyed orders. I couldn't help asking him to investigate. It's just for my sake. How about letting him go?" Well, when I was sick in bed, I said one by one, and my tone was so soft.

"Your Majesty can afford a servant who doesn't care about his master's health, but I can't afford it!" Wang Shuo spat, and said, "It's a good deal. If you don't take it again and again, Zhao Xi has already refused to take you twice. My body is serious, I can't bear it, if there is another crime, I will be dragged out and beaten to death."

"Okay, okay, okay, I'll listen to you." Tu Geng replied with a good temper.

"This time, you have to be punished and be demoted to deputy manager. You should let Ye Benli stand up for you first. Ye Benli has gone through three dynasties, and he is capable and able to handle daily affairs without any problem." Wang Shuo insisted on giving Zhao Xi a punishment.

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Tu Geng had no further objections, and waved Zhao Xi down to tidy up.

After Zhao Xi withdrew, Wang Shuo let go of his straight back, sighed and asked, "You don't blame me for being a substitute?"

"I know you are doing it for my own good." Tu Geng said with a smile.

"It's good to know. Ye Benli's coming here is just to put pressure on Zhao Xi, otherwise he will rely on the affection he has served since childhood and know how to make you soft-hearted, so he won't take your body seriously. When he changes, you Even if Ye Benli comes back, I can't do without him." Wang Shuo explained that she never meant to use Ye Benli to monitor Tu Geng.

"Okay, listen to you." Tu Geng smiled, pointed to his head and said, "Headache~"

"You're so grown up, you can act like a baby like Xu'er, just lie down~" Wang Shuo sat on the bed skillfully, let Tu Geng pillow her thigh, took off the ring, finger cot, and bracelet, and slowly massaged Tu Geng to relax.
