The rebirth of the poisonous concubine

Chapter 169 The king is fascinated by beauty

Qin Wange looked at him innocently: "Although Susu is from southern Xinjiang, recently she has read a lot of stories about the Central Plains under the guidance of female official Xiao. The stories say that only Mingjun has been around since ancient times. There are only ministers who speak the truth in the court, if Tang Cheng has no taboos about speaking to the emperor and speaks freely, it just shows that the emperor is a wise emperor, so if Tang Chengxiang has something to say directly to the emperor, he is not afraid of the emperor's anger."

Qin Wange said softly, flattering Situ Rui while speaking for Tang Zhongze.

Situ Rui listened to Qin Wange's words, and it was really useful. He nodded Qin Wange's nose with a smile and said, "You, Tang Zhongze's words are clearly intended to anger me, but when you say that, it becomes a compliment to me." .”

Seeing the smile in Situ Rui's eyes, Qin Wange sneered in his heart. How could this kind of emperor, who only listens to flattery and not advice from good ministers, last long?
Situ Rui, you are killing yourself.

Not long after he came to court, Situ Rui went to Yuejun Palace, and Li You also sneaked into Qifeng Palace.

On the surface, in order to appease the Nalan family's resentment over Concubine Lan's death, Xu Qiushui is still confined, but in fact, he has existed in name only.

Because he saw Tang Zhongze's jokes in the court hall, when Li You came to Qifeng Palace, he still looked proud.

Because of Xu Qiushui's good health, he half leaned on the bed and did not get out of bed.

Li You came in, put away his pride, saluted Xu Qiushui and said, "Join the empress."

"Come on, Prime Minister, we are all a family, so there is no need to be polite."

Li You got her words, and then got up, "Your Majesty's body is fine."

Xu Qiushui said: "It's okay, the imperial doctor said that after a few days of cultivation, it will be fine. I don't know why the Right Prime Minister entered the palace this time."

Lu Zhu served Li You some tea, and Li You took a sip before saying, "It's good that the empress is fine. I heard the news that my empress had an accident in Qifeng Palace, so I wanted to visit her. But Recently, the emperor has been in the palace of the empress, and the minister can only come in today." Li You said.

"That's because the right minister has a heart. I heard about the flood in Yongzhou, and the emperor has been very annoying recently. I don't know what's going on?" Xu Qiushui asked.

"Don't worry, Yongzhou Flood Trouble Lady. Although there is a lot of trouble this time, it is a group of refugees after all. With Lin Yong standing there, nothing will happen." Li You said.

"This time the dam in Yongzhou was broken, and many people were killed or injured. You asked Lin Yong to be more cautious in everything in Yongzhou. If the emperor wanted to investigate, I am afraid that many people would be involved. Now the emperor I already have suspicions about you and I must not make things worse." Xu Qiushui felt a little uneasy after thinking about the Yongzhou incident, so he couldn't help but say a few more words.

"I'll tell Lin Yong to clean it up. But he also understands that, like in previous years, he will stop anyone who writes a book or goes to the capital to file a complaint." Li You said.

"That's good, and Lin Yong, you should also remind him not to be too greedy. The dam built last year was destroyed this year. Although the emperor didn't want to go to that place, the officials below are like mirrors in their hearts. It's very clear. You tell him to clean up his tail, and don't let others catch the evidence, otherwise we may be implicated in it." Xu Qiushui said.

Under their promotion these years, Lin Yong has been promoted very quickly, but he has also become more and more greedy. Not only does he take up a lot of money for disaster relief in Yongzhou every year, but he also takes a lot of money for major projects such as building dams. silver.Of course, since she was in the palace, she also had these advantages. Situ Rui's money was her money, and if she didn't take it for nothing, she would not take it.

Xu Qiushui thought for a while and ordered: "I heard that the newly appointed prefect of Yongzhou was once a student of Tang Zhongze. Last year's champion of the new department was appreciated by the emperor because of his extraordinary talent. He even had no scruples about being a student of Tang Zhongze, so he was directly appointed. He is the prefect of Yongzhou. Tang Zhongze and you have always been at odds in the court, and he is afraid that his disciple will inherit his strange temper, so you should tell Lin Yong to be more careful."

"Although He Qingwen is the prefect of Yongzhou, but Lin Yong is the governor of Yongzhou and holds the military and political power in Yongzhou. He Qingwen can't touch Lin Yong. Besides, the emperor is still very fond of Tang Zhongze. Taboo, Tang Zhongze had another quarrel with the emperor this morning, the emperor must be annoyed now. Even if He Qingwen wanted to impeach Lin Yong, the emperor would think that Tang Zhongze deliberately instructed him because he was a student of Tang Zhongze. Don't worry." Li You said.

Xu Qiushui glanced at Li You and said nothing.

Li You talked a lot again, and told Xu Qiushui all the recent things in the court, but he still had nothing to say and refused to leave, as if there was something wrong.

After listening for a while, Xu Qiushui understood, but he still asked: "Is there anything else Mr. Li wants to tell me?"

"Niangniang Huiyan." Li You said with some embarrassment, "These days Xuanyin has been confined in the bedroom. Anyway, the matter of Concubine Lan has faded before, you see..."

Xu Qiushui picked up the teacup in his hand, took a sip and said: "I know about this matter, and within a few days, I will mention Concubine Yin to the emperor, so that the emperor will tell you about Concubine Yin." Let the concubine out."

The purpose of Li You's coming today is for Li Xuanyin. Seeing what Xu Qiushui said, he said with a smile: "Thank you, empress. Now that the imperial concubine is the only favorite in the palace, and the empress will release our Xuanyin, then the empress will also be in the palace." With one more left and right hand, it will be more convenient for the empress to do things."

Xu Qiushui's mouth twitched into a smile, but he didn't answer Li You's words.Li You, an old fox, originally wanted to ask her to intercede for Li Xuanyin, but instead, he let Li Xuanyin out to help.He can really talk.

Now Xu Qiushui is seven months pregnant, and because of the pregnancy, her calf is a little swollen.After waiting for Li You to leave, Luzhu pinched Xu Qiushui's calf and asked, "Mother, do you really want to plead for Concubine Yin?"

"Otherwise, now that I'm pregnant and got the phoenix seal, that bitch will be very unhappy in the palace. If I don't suppress her, the harem probably has forgotten that there is still this empress." Xu Qiushui Said fiercely.

She won't let that little bitch from southern Xinjiang have a good life.

Luzhu said with some emotion: "This imperial concubine really has some tricks. Recently, she deliberately made things for her in the palace, but she can deal with it calmly. I don't know if she was a queen in her previous life. gone."

Hearing these words, Xu Qiushui sat up abruptly, and stared at Lu Zhu fiercely.Luzhu was "terrified" and quickly lowered her head, "My lord, please forgive me, this servant made a slip of the tongue, this servant is talking nonsense!"

Xu Qiushui's face was gloomy, as if he wanted to kill someone.

After lunch, Situ Rui went to Qinzheng Hall, and then to Yuejun Hall for dinner.

Qin Wange lit the Huan Yixiang, and Situ Rui stayed in Yuejun Hall.

After Situ Rui was hit again, Qin Wange returned to the side hall, but felt a gust of wind behind him.She turned her head vigilantly, and what she saw was Situ Yan, whom she hadn't seen for a while.

Seeing that the sneak attack was unsuccessful, Situ Yan looked at Qin Wange with some regret and said, "I almost succeeded in stealing fragrance. Can the imperial concubine not be so responsive in the future?"

Situ Yan said this in his usual frivolous tone, which made Qin Wange feel inexplicably familiar and familiar.With a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, he said, "Would you blame others for your poor mastery?"

"Is this king poor in skill? This king feels that there is no problem with flying over eaves and walls. You see, no one in the palace has found out about my whereabouts, only the imperial concubine. In the final analysis, this king was fascinated by the beauty of the imperial concubine." Situ Yan He sat down talking to himself.

He was wearing the clothes of the imperial army, so he should have entered the palace as an imperial army.

Qin Wange gave him a blank look: would Situ Yan feel bad if he saw her and didn't entertain her?
Situ Yan poured himself a cup of tea, and said slowly: "Now the management of the six palaces is handed over to the imperial concubine. I think the imperial concubine is very happy to spend the spring in the palace these days. She has a lot of power in her hands. It is very refreshing to have the power of life and death.”

"My life in the palace has always been very good, don't worry about it. I don't know why the prince took the time to come to the palace tonight?" Qin Wange asked.

Situ Yan said with a smile: "I can't see the imperial concubine for a long time, I miss the imperial concubine very much, can't I take time to visit the imperial concubine in the palace?"

Qin Wange looked at Situ Yan indifferently, but Situ Yan finally said: "I wonder if the imperial concubine has heard about the flood in Yongzhou?"

When talking about this, Situ Yan's originally calm expression became a bit serious.

Qin Wange said: "Today in the court hall, the emperor and Prime Minister Tang had a quarrel about the flood in Yongzhou, and this Palace only found out about it today."

"The flood in Yongzhou has affected twelve counties and counties. The scale of the disaster has never happened in these years. However, Lin Yong, the governor of Yongzhou, who Situ Rui placed in Yongzhou, suppressed this matter and spread it to the public. The loss reported by the capital is less than half of the real loss. Now Situ Rui only cares about getting angry with Tang Zhongze, and in his heart, the people don't matter at all!"

The more Situ Yan spoke, the more angry he became; "He only thought about Tang Zhongze not giving him face or giving me the dignity of the emperor, but he didn't care about the life and death of the people, and didn't want many innocent people to be displaced. If this continues day by day, more people will die. .”

"Why did your lord mention the flood in Yongzhou so well. No matter how many people died, it's all about Situ Rui's business. Why should your lord be so worried?" Qin Wange said intentionally, observing Situ Yan's expression while talking.
