Chapter 116: A twist in the road
After Xie Yun'an said these words, the queen's expression changed a little to the naked eye. Fortunately, the queen was a well-educated person after all, and she would not lose her sense of proportion just because of Xie Yun'an's two words.

What's more, if Xie Yun'an is really dissatisfied with her, there is no need to say these words at this time. After many years of marriage, the queen knows the temperament of the man in front of her best. Of course, she also knows that sometimes, what Xie Yun'an says has to be listened to in reverse.

"I am usually busy with palace affairs. I really didn't know that these things happened. It is really my fault. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Xie Yun'an raised his hand to tell Shen Qingyin to stand up. Of course, he did not say this to blame the queen, but the queen was able to take the opportunity to help him finish the words. It can be seen that after all, she has been with him for many years and understands him best. thoughts.

"The affairs in the harem are busy, and I have seen it. Although the queen is diligent, she cannot handle everything properly. In my opinion, it is better for the queen to pick two available ones in the palace to help I’ll handle the trivial matters in the palace with you.”

This is a serious statement.

But Queen Shen felt more relaxed.

The emperor didn't mean to blame her, he just said that there were too many things in the harem and he needed to pick two available people to help deal with the harem. But for today's harem, the imperial concubine has the right to assist the six palaces. Last time, because of the queen mother, she This power was withdrawn, and it was never returned to her.

It's just that the emperor didn't blame the imperial concubine, but showed more affection for her because of this incident. Everyone in the harem understood the situation and never felt that the imperial concubine really had no power.

But whatever the imperial concubine wants, you can still see it when you need to see it, and you can still say it when you need to say it. This time the queen wanted to use Yi Bin's affairs to involve the imperial concubine, but she still couldn't do it.

However, although the emperor protected the imperial concubine, he did not say that he would put the power of co-managing the Sixth Palace into the imperial concubine's hands again.

Rather, they want to pick two available people from the harem to help - could it be that the current Concubine Zhuang and others are not available?

The queen did not speak, and the others were waiting for the emperor's next words.

Everyone understands that the emperor is now a drunkard and is not interested in drinking, or he is returning the power to the imperial concubine in order to appease the imperial concubine - after all, Yibin is the imperial concubine, and after investigating this matter, it is indeed consistent with the investigation. The concubine doesn't matter.

Both Feng Cairen and Yi concubine are under the imperial concubine's command. This witchcraft incident sounds serious, but in fact it is just two women under the imperial concubine's subordinates who are jealous, so it is caused by this kind of commotion. Just an incident.

Just pulling out the carrot and bringing out the mud involved many things that no one paid attention to before, so that at this point, the matter cannot even be ended.

And losing two of his subordinates in a row was actually an unforeseen disaster for the imperial concubine.

So, will the emperor put this power back into the hands of the imperial concubine?
Everyone was murmuring in their hearts, but on the surface they were all prepared. If the emperor really made a sound, then everyone would be reluctant to compliment the imperial concubine.

However, the emperor and the imperial concubine were of the same mind on this matter, and he naturally knew that the imperial concubine liked power far more than responsibility. Putting the management of the harem on her was not a burden at all.

Moreover, the imperial concubine and the empress had nothing to deal with. One was younger and acted in a flamboyant manner, while the other, although older and calm, was a sulky master. Even if he was unhappy in his heart, he would not show it on the surface. , I will only hold it in myself.

As time went by, Xie Yun'an was afraid that the queen would get upset. If the queen started to plot things in the harem, then he would no longer have to live in peace. Therefore, the concubine cannot be given the power to manage the harem after all, but she cannot completely ignore the concubine's thoughts. Otherwise, regardless of whether people outside the palace need to care about it, Xie Yun'an can tolerate the concubine's little temper.

Then you can only choose an agent for the imperial concubine.

He didn't think much of this choice. Yi Bi had just been pulled off, and Feng Cairen was still lying on the bed unable to get out of bed. Now there was only one person available around the imperial concubine.

The emperor waited for the queen to speak. Of course, the queen could not let go. She reacted quickly, and then followed the emperor's words and said: "I have been feeling unwell recently. Although there is Concubine Zhuang, He Jieyu and others are helping me fight. It is indeed not very convenient to manage all the affairs in the harem without Yi concubine. The emperor thinks, how about letting Zhao concubine make up for it? "

The Queen's words had not yet finished, and before the Emperor could get up to speak, Concubine Zhao had already stood up and saluted.

"I would like to thank the Empress for your kindness. However, I am not good at taking care of trivial matters. I am overwhelmed with everything in my own palace. I am afraid that I will not be able to help the Empress with the affairs of the harem."

She has always been a smart person, so she naturally knew that the emperor's words were just a drunkard's intention. He obviously wanted to take this opportunity to give the concubine some face, but the queen didn't want to give it to her.

So she just pushed herself away, but did not recommend other candidates. She was never willing to do this kind of thing.

And the reason why the queen said this was simply because she didn't want to meet the imperial concubine head-on.

There was no need for her to touch the noble concubine's brows, which was something that even a serious master wouldn't want to do. Zhao Bi had been getting along with the noble concubine for so many years, and the two of them had always been on good terms, so she naturally knew each other's taboos quite well.

Concubine Rong said she cared about power and position, but she didn't care very much. However, the power given to her in the palace, especially around Xie Yun'an, was a symbol of favor. Concubine Rong liked to show off the emperor's favor to her. She loves her, so only she doesn't want this thing, and no one else can take it away from her.

Except Xie Yunan.

Sometimes Zhaobi herself was confused, as if there was something around the emperor. As soon as the imperial concubine got close to something related to him, she automatically turned into a person without any brains. It was clear that when she was in the boudoir, the women Everyone had heard that the Chen family had a daughter who was as good as any man, but they never imagined that it would end up like this.

On the Queen's side, she was also thinking quickly in her mind. Zhaobi had always had a temperament that could not be helped. When something happened, she would run faster than anyone else. It happened that she was born in the Qingliu family, even if she wanted to use her... It is useless to try to recruit her for the benefit of the family.

She was thinking about choosing someone else - it would be fine if she was not a concubine, but if not, Qiao Yanran would also be suitable. Doing something to help her would save the emperor from having to remember her.

But the emperor had already spoken.

"What Concubine Zhao said makes sense. Moreover, you people who have been in high positions for a long time may not be able to handle the trivial matters for the queen. I'm afraid that Yao Jieyu is very suitable."

Yao Jinse was eating melon with his head down, when he suddenly looked up when he heard his name.

Why does this have to do with her? This is not in the script!
