good wife

Chapter 739 Long time no see! (4)
King Jin's face changed slightly, and his expression was also a little nervous, "Yes, what the concubine mother taught me! My son was in a hurry! I almost got into a catastrophe!" After finishing speaking, he bowed down to Yang Shuo to be rude, "Thank you uncle for reminding me just now. Already!"

Yang Shuo hurriedly stepped forward to help him, "Your Majesty, you are serious! I am your uncle and your helper. If I don't help you, why should I help the King Ming? What you did today is excellent! Come here, you will dispel the emperor's doubts about you, and you will also leave a good impression of generosity and distinction between public and private among the veterans present!"

Concubine De sighed, and said with some fear: "For this matter, I still have to thank my sister-in-law. If she hadn't told me about this matter when she entered the palace yesterday, I wouldn't have known about it. Now it happens to take advantage of this, Come to dispel the emperor's vigilance! Now that I think about it, it's really dangerous. Big brother, after you go back, thank you sister-in-law for me."

"Your Majesty, you're being polite! These are what humble ministers and lowly servants should do."

Concubine De smiled, and at this time a maidservant beside her came out with a tray in her hand, "These are some herbs that the emperor ordered to reward yesterday. I've been fine for a long time now. , elder brother brought these back to sister-in-law. Bengong saw that sister-in-law looked a little unhappy yesterday, maybe she was tired. You take it back and make up for sister-in-law. Also, remember to tell sister-in-law about Qinger’s matter , don't worry! Ben Gong has already thought about her."

Yang Shuo's eyes lit up, and he said, "Thank you, Madam."

Concubine De nodded, "Send General Yang out."

"Yes!" Two palace servants sent Yang Shuo out of the palace.

Concubine De looked at King Jin with a serious face and said: "Today's matter is too dangerous. I ask you, why did you come to the Duke Huguo's mansion suddenly? Everyone in this court knows that you are not on good terms with King Ming, so why did you suddenly meet?" Visiting the Duke Protector's Mansion? This is why others suspect that you are secretly framing him!"

Jin Wang hurriedly bowed and said: "Mother and concubine, calm down! My son also received news from an informant yesterday, saying that there seems to be an extra painting in the study of Duke Huguo's mansion, but they don't know what it is Painting? And it looks like Duke Huguo is very precious. My son knew that Guangzhusi had lost a painting, so he wondered if it was that one? Then he went to Duke Huguo's mansion."

"Fortunately, there were other people present at the time, otherwise, the Protector of the Country would definitely insist that you were the one who planted the frame! At that time, you will not be able to tell clearly even if you are covered in mouths! You must discuss this kind of matter with your uncle in the future. .Don’t make your own decisions anymore!”

"Yes! Erchen originally wanted to discuss with his uncle. But he thought that his third cousin had just passed away. I was afraid that my uncle would be in a bad mood, so I didn't bother him."

"Hmph! Kun'er's life will not be lost in vain! Empress, you owe me the Yang family, and I will ask you to get it back sooner or later!" Concubine De put her right hand on the armrest, the long armor, On the carved handrail, a long trace was drawn!

Prince Ping's Mansion, inside the Wenhua Courtyard.

"Yiyi, the Duke Protector's Mansion is under siege, it seems that the emperor is really angry! Now let's see how angry the emperor will be?"

"I didn't expect Concubine De to speak for the Duke of the Protectorate, although she completely damaged the Duke of the Protector, she still spoke for the Duke of the Protector!" Yue Zhengyang said a little puzzled.

Yuan Xi chuckled, "What did you not expect? Yiyi deliberately asked someone to disclose this news to Mrs. Yang. In order to claim credit for Concubine De, Mrs. Yang would naturally say it. On the one hand, it was to laugh at Duke Hu. On the other hand, it is to let Concubine De know the situation outside, and also to indirectly tell him that life in Duke Huguo's residence is difficult!"

Only then did Yue Zhengyang look at Jingyi and said: "Why do you let Concubine De speak up? Why don't you do it yourself when it's a matter of showing favor to the queen?"

"What kind of errand do you think this is? That is what Concubine De says is the most appropriate! In this way, the Empress has to think about it. The King of Jin brought the matter to the Emperor, but Concubine De stood up to protect the Duke's mansion." Speaking, what does this mean? What will the emperor think? How will the important ministers in the court think of King Jin and Concubine De?"

Yue Zhengyang was stunned for a moment, his gaze became a little deeper, he nodded and said: "Yiyi is right! The queen will think that all this is done by Concubine De. And the emperor will think that King Jin didn't intentionally target the Duke Huguo's mansion. , and also dispelled the suspicion of framing Duke Huguo. On the contrary, the emperor thought that Concubine De was virtuous and generous. I look at Jin Wang mother and son with admiration! This concubine De is indeed smart!"

Yuan Xi smiled lightly: "What's so smart about her? Wouldn't it make the queen hate her even more?"

Jingyi smiled, "Then let them fight. We have our affairs to do, the more lively they fight, the safer we will be! At least for now, the queen will not have any ideas about Concubine Shu! We If you leave Beijing, you can rest assured."

"Yiyi, why hasn't the emperor ordered Qingtian and Princess Lixiang to return to Miaojiang?"

"Do you really think I'm a god? You can know everything by pinching your fingers?" Jingyi said with a little amused smile: "If I really have that ability, I will be the first to calculate, when will the emperor order you to get married? "

Yue Zhengyang's expression froze, "Well, talk about business, talk about business!"

Yuan Xi poured tea for several people again, "For Duke Protector, the worst outcome of this incident should be that all members of the Bai clan stay away from the court. The title of the Duke of the Kingdom was captured by Bai Fei. And the lightest result is that the Duke of the Protector of the Country is retired, and the others are still performing their duties. On the other hand, the power is not lost much."

Yue Zhengyang raised his eyebrows, "How is it possible? For such a big crime, don't you need to pay a single life?"

"You have to understand that the old duke is still alive. Back then, the old duke made great contributions to supporting the emperor! Besides, over the years, the Duke Huguo's mansion has also made a lot of contributions to the emperor. If the emperor is really If you have the intention to kill, I am afraid that people will criticize you, saying that the emperor wants to kill the hero, and kill the donkey!"

Yuan Xi's words made Yue Zhengyang nod his head, and then he said with some regret: "It's a pity! After such a big situation, it is impossible to guarantee the power of the Duke Huguo's Mansion. It's really suffocating!"

Jingyi smiled slightly: "Why can't you shake it? Have you forgotten Bai Fei?"

"Bai Fei? That's right! If he wins the title, it will be a great help for us. Naturally, he will lose the power of the Duke Protector's Mansion! Not bad! There are still some benefits."

Yuan Xi and Jing Yi glanced at each other, "Yue Zhengyang, you should be more careful these days. I'm worried that the queen will send someone to follow you! After all, you were one of the people present at that time. The queen is naturally smart and suspicious. Others can't think of it. She may have thought of it. This matter has something to do with you and Qingtian."
