The slave family is not a disaster

Chapter 291
"I have my own plan for this, anyway... don't touch her." Said Xi Gongjue, turned and left.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Shen Bilan always feels that Jue Nishinomiya is protecting the Ye family sisters. Could it be that he really likes Ye Anran?
When Shen Bilan thought of this, she shook her head vigorously. She didn't believe it. She didn't believe that the relationship between herself and Jue for so many years was snatched away by that woman. Ye Anran married Jue Nishinomiya for less than a year. She didn't believe that she would lose.

She knew that Jue Xigong was a long-lasting person, and how deep his love for her was, but...she seemed to have forgotten how much harm she had caused Jue Xigong.

two days later

Shen Bilan left the palace on the grounds of leaving the palace to worship the ancestors and pray for blessings. Along the way, she first went to the altar to worship the ancestors of the West Palace. Then, while not paying attention, she threw off the eyeliner that followed her and walked into a tailor shop. In fact, this tailor shop Just to deceive people, it looks like a tailor shop on the surface, but there is something hidden inside. Walk through the back door and walk a few steps to the small inn where Mr. Xigui lives.

Afterwards, Shen Bilan and Jue Nishinomiya met in a small alley.

"Jue, let's go." Shen Bilan raised her hand and said affectionately while holding Jue Nishinomiya.

Nishinomiya subconsciously avoided Shen Bilan's hand, and smiled awkwardly: "Don't do this, it's not good to be seen."

"Jue, this is outside the palace, not to mention... I have already removed those eyeliners, who are you afraid of seeing?" Shen Bilan was a little displeased, she seemed to feel that Jue Xigong didn't treat her so well anymore, and the way he looked at her Not hot anymore.

"Ah, I'm used to being cautious when I was in the palace." Jue Nishinomiya found a reason for himself.

"I don't care, I will hold your hand, the same as before." Saying that, Shen Bilan stretched out her hand domineeringly and held Nishigongjue's hand tightly.

Nishinomiya had no choice but to let him hold his hand, and then walked into the inn...

Before entering the inn, Jue Nishinomiya let go, after all, it's not good to be seen by the concubine.

Shen Bilan didn't say anything, she was just wondering, who is it that Nishinomiya is so mysterious and mobilizing so many people to arrange for her to meet?

Walking in, Shen Bilan saw a middle-aged beautiful woman, dressed in a brown brocade robe, sitting on the grand teacher's chair with a solemn expression.

"Are you here?" Mr. Xi asked slowly.

"Lan'er, this is my concubine mother." Xi Gongjue introduced.

Immediately, Shen Bilan was startled: "Your concubine mother? Jue, you are not kidding me, are you? Your concubine mother was already... 20 years ago?"

"What? Those people said that Bengong is dead? Or is he missing?" Xigui laughed.

"It's my mother and concubine. She didn't die, but she has been outside the palace for these years. When my father was alive, he took me out of the palace to meet my mother and concubine every year." Xi Gongjue explained simply.

"This...how is it possible? It's too sudden." Shen Bilan's eyes widened in astonishment. In her opinion, didn't Xigongjue's biological mother, Mrs. Xigui, disappear long ago?
Many people said that it was Empress Dowager He who murdered Xigui to death, but no one saw Xigui's body, and there was no tablet of Xigui in the imperial tomb. It seems that this matter is really strange.

"Jue, you go out, I want to talk to Lan'er alone." Xigui said.

"Yes, concubine mother." Jue Xigong glanced at Shen Bilan and quietly stepped back.

Mrs. Xi got up and walked over, with a faint smile: "What? Are you surprised? You think I can't beat He Yunying, and died in her hands long ago, don't you?"

Shen Bilan knew that the He Yunying that Mr. Xigui was talking about was the current Empress Dowager He...

"No, Concubine Xi, you misunderstood me. I didn't think so. It's just...for so many years, everyone thought you disappeared mysteriously. I really didn't prepare for seeing you this time. It was very sudden." Shen Bilan Said in a panic.

"Well, you don't know the inside story, so it's normal to be surprised." Xi Guiren smiled.

After a while, Shen Bilan regained her composure, and asked cautiously, "Concubine Xi, you... want to see me, what's the matter?"

"Of course, otherwise what do you think?" Xigui replied sharply.

"Oh, okay, Jue didn't tell me too much, so I didn't know you had something to do with me." Shen Bilan spoke very carefully, and she felt unprecedented pressure and a strong aura from Xigui.

"You like Jue very much?" Mr. Xi asked straight to the point.

Immediately, Shen Bilan blushed and nodded: "Well, Jue and I have known each other for many years."

"My palace has also heard about your affairs. Jue cares about you very much and wanted to introduce you to this palace a long time ago, but Empress Dowager He watched too closely and didn't dare to act rashly." Mrs. Xi stared at Shen Bilan every word Said.

"It is Lan'er's blessing to be appreciated by Concubine Xi." Shen Bilan was very good at flattering elders, and when she heard that the person in front of her was the biological mother of Jue Xigong, she immediately began to flatter her.

"Well, Lan'er, you don't have to be too polite. Although we are meeting for the first time, I am no stranger to you. You don't need to be so polite in the future. It's no big deal to come to you today. I just want to talk to you. Reminiscing about the old days, you don't have to be nervous." Seeing that Shen Bilan couldn't let go, Xigui comforted her kindly.

"Yes, Lan'er obeys." There are not many people who can make a dignified empress so nervous, Queen Mother He is the first, and Mrs. Xigui is definitely the second.

These are also the only two women in this world that Shen Bilan cares about...

Because in the eyes of these seniors, her methods are trivial and worth mentioning...

Afterwards, Mr. Xigui explained why he left the palace and why he had been living in seclusion for so many years and refused to show up.

Shen Bilan admired her extremely, a woman who could endure for 20 years for her son's great cause is considered a hero among women.

"Ms. Taifei, when the late emperor died of illness, why didn't you come forward and explain clearly? Maybe in that case, the person who ascended the throne would be the Jue instead of the current emperor." Shen Bilan asked a question.

"At that time, my palace was not fully sure. We never met when the first emperor was seriously ill. First, because the queen mother was full of eyeliners in the palace, I couldn't enter the palace. Second, the queen mother colluded with the demon sect. There was a bloody storm in the rivers and lakes, which confused the eyes of the world, and then took advantage of the chaos to assist her son to ascend the throne. At that time, if Ben Gong stepped forward, it would be difficult to change the situation at that time. Death, I am not afraid, I have been fighting with her for so many years, I am already prepared to lose, but Jue can't afford to lose." Xigui explained.

"What the concubine said is true." Shen Bilan bowed her head and said.

"Lan'er, from now on... the harem will be handed over to you. I've heard from Jue that you have chosen to help him. You are a good boy. I promise that after Jue ascends the throne, he will definitely not treat you badly. It's none other than you." Nobleman Xi said firmly.

"This... Empress Dowager, you may have misunderstood me. I am not here for this patriarch. You also know that I am also a queen now. If it is only for the post, there is no need to take this risk, right?" Shen Bilan is embarrassed. smiled.

"I understand, don't worry, I can see clearly your sincerity towards Jue, once the matter is completed, you will still be the queen, so it's settled." Xigui said affectionately, pulling Shen Bilan's hand.

"Thank you, Empress Dowager, for your love." It was obvious that Mrs. Xi liked her very much, and Shen Bilan was a little complacent.

Afterwards, she suddenly thought of something and asked: "Ms. Concubine, after Jue ascends the throne, where will it be my turn? Jue now has a wife who was his original match."

"You mean the girl from the Ye family?" Mrs. Xi asked coldly.

"Exactly."

"Hehe, she is nothing, at most she is a stumbling block. If she is obedient and obedient, she may be given a seat and become a concubine after she becomes a great success. If she gets in the way, then... I will ask you took her life." Nobleman Xi said slowly.

Seeing the cold light in Xigui's eyes, Shen Bilan only felt shuddering. She had heard that Xigui was born in a martial arts family and possessed unique skills. It seemed that this was true, and Xi Gongjue seemed to be obedient to his mother and concubine. It seemed that It's better not to offend this old lady.

"Ye Anran is not scary, but she has a sister who is difficult to deal with. The concubine should know about Ye Zhaoyi, right? She is pregnant with Liujia, has been favored by the empress dowager, and has gained the attention of the emperor. Now she is calling the shots in the harem. Once After giving birth to a prince, the momentum will increase greatly, and by then, it may not be easy to get rid of." Shen Bilan said exaggeratedly.

"Well, this palace has heard a little bit about it, and knows that Ye Zhaoyi and Jue's concubine are biological sisters, but don't say they are biological sisters, so what if they get closer, once they hinder Jue's great cause, they will be killed without mercy. I will discuss this matter with Jue later, but I will leave the matters of the harem to you. Now that the situation in Bianjing is tense, we dare not act rashly, and we need your close cooperation." Xigui patted Shen Bilan's Shoulder said thoughtfully.

"Yes, Lan'er will do my best to cooperate with the concubine. As long as Jue can get what he wants, I, Shen Bilan, will go through fire and water." In front of Mr. Xigui, Shen Bilan expressed her determination. It was very simple, because Mr. Xi had already promised got what she wanted.

In other words, it's just a fair exchange...to take advantage of each other.

"Good boy, you are so affectionate and righteous. No wonder Jue likes you so much, and so does Bengong. From now on...we will be a family, and the affairs of the palace will be left to you, but you have to be careful of Queen Mother He That old fox, she is not so easy to fool." Mrs. Xi reminded.

"Yes, thank you for your teaching, the concubine, Lan'er understands." In front of Mrs. Xi, Shen Bilan was always well-behaved, put away her mercenary face, and tried her best to act like a good daughter-in-law.

This conversation was very pleasant, because they all took what they needed...

Shen Bilan then returned to the palace pretty, and from then on, she always used some meticulous work to pass on messages to nobleman Xi, telling nobleman Xi every move in the palace without reservation.

It can be regarded as a seamless fit...

Inside the royal study
The emperor and Gaifeng are playing chess...

"Haifeng, your chess skills seem to be getting worse and worse." The emperor teased.

"It's not that your majesty, you are always running around here and there, and you don't have time to hone your chess skills." Gaifeng complained.

"Then you are complaining that I made things difficult for you on purpose?" The emperor raised his head and smiled.

"How do you feel, the master wants the slave to die, and the slave dares not to die." Gaifeng played tricks.

"General... Army." The emperor dropped a horse, putting the commander of Blast to death.

"Oh, I'm about to lose again, what should I do? Your Majesty, your chess skills are getting more and more ruthless, and you killed your subordinates in just a few moves." Said Gaifeng, scratching his ears and cheeks.

"Not necessarily, Haifeng, you can choose to abandon the car to keep handsome." The emperor reminded with a smile.

"Your majesty, do you have something to point out again?" Gaifeng knew that the emperor would not be so idle just to play chess with him. It must be that the situation in Bianjing has undergone subtle changes, and the emperor has a new countermeasure. The emperor has been thinking about things for so many years, he can still guess.
