Inside the carriage
Jing Rong and Ji Yunshu sat opposite each other.
Accompanied by the slight swaying of the carriage, the even breathing sounds of the two also became a little hurried along the way.
After a while, Ji Yunshu glanced at him and said, "Actually, the lord doesn't have to enter the palace with me."
"It's not really an escort, this king will also enter the palace today to see the father and emperor, the border issue is pressing, and yesterday I had already sent someone to pass on this king to discuss matters."
"Oh!" a muffled voice came out.
Jing Rong paused and said solemnly: "Although Concubine Xiao has lived in the deep palace for a long time, she must not be underestimated. You should have known this well at her birthday banquet."
She nodded, "I understand."
"You must guard her everywhere. If this king is not wrong, she will call you into the palace, and she will ask you about the disappearance case, but what she wants to do is inseparable from the word power and position."
Speaking of this, Jing Rong was also a little worried.
It's not that she is worried that she will become the target of Concubine Xiao's pursuit of power for her son, but that Concubine Xiao intends to win over Ji Yunshu.
And this woman, if she gets down, she rejects all of them now, and it is impossible to guarantee that she will not become the second target of Concubine Xiao's hunt.
Seeing Jingrong's worry, Ji Yunshu just smiled.
Do not answer!
"Can you hear what this king said?" Jing Rong frowned.
"As soon as I come, I will be safe, and the lord doesn't have to worry about me. Even if Concubine Xiao wants to control the overall situation, she must have chess pieces at her mercy, but if I stay in the chess cup opposite her, I'm sure her I can't even reach out my hand."
Ji Yunshu had a mysterious smile on his brows. As Jing Rong said, she also knew a thing or two about who Concubine Xiao was.
Jing Rong didn't understand what she said.
He sighed lightly: "Anyway, be careful with yourself, the women in the deep palace are terrifying, and those who can survive until now and still stand still are a bunch of monsters."
Ji Yunshu agreed with these words.
But he couldn't help being amused again, and raised his slender hand to cover the corner of his lips that was drawn by him.
The wide sleeves were slightly rolled up by the wind outside the curtain, and the long blue silk hair was brushed, hiding the half of the delicate face.
It's so beautiful!
Jing Rong's ice-like eyes, once placed on Ji Yunshu's body, would always be like a raging fire, only willing to burn a little by her side.
In an instant, he looked away, reached out and lifted the curtain of the car, looked outside, and said.
"It's almost at the palace gate."
Ji Yunshu's eyes also glanced out of the car. The last time he entered the palace, he was in a hurry, and he didn't have time to see the majestic palace gate.
The high-hanging South Gate plaque is engraved on the center of the three gates, and the big gilded characters are oozing cold light in the cold wind, like the veins in the human body, transmitting that cold light to the bricks and tiles of the palace.
The ice is as solid as a big ice cellar.
Probably this is why, every frame and every minute in the deep palace is extremely tormenting.
Jing Rong said to her, "I don't care what your plans are, in short, you must be on guard against others. Be careful yourself. I will wait for you at the south gate after discussing matters with the royal father."
"My lord, let's put more thought into the matter of the lower frontier. Qu Jiangguo's recent attack has caused turmoil in the frontier, which is really a headache. If I am not mistaken, the emperor may ask the lord if he has a good solution to deal with it. , this will be kung fu, the lord should try to find one."
Uh!
Jing Rong was startled!
No, it's shocking!
He didn't know that Ji Yunshu was smart, not only when he was investigating the case, but also knew about this matter.
Probably out of amazement, Jing Rong asked, "Since you can guess it, do you have a good plan?"
She shook her head: "My lord asked the wrong person, I have no good plan, I just thought about it and guessed, but the war between the two countries is nothing more than a matter of interests, whether it is political or territorial, it is not as good as the common people. Life is important, presumably, since ancient times, no emperor would risk offending the people of the world to realize his ambition and hegemony."
Her tone was calm, and she couldn't hear any waves.
It's like a casual remark!
On the other hand, Jing Rong's eyes were filled with surging amazement.
"Who told you all this?"
"It was mentioned in "Prospectus", and after a little thought, I wrote it down, and said a few words casually."
Jing Rong is dubious!
What "Lin Ji"! Ji Yunshu had never touched it at all!
She heard Ji Pei talking about these things. In the past two years, Ji Pei not only taught her to write poetry and calligraphy, but also taught her some things about seeking power and the art of war.
Probably out of interest, Ji Yunshu studied it very hard for two years.
She still remembered what Ji Pei said to her.
"The biggest enemy in the world is not the soldiers and warriors standing in front of you with sharp swords and spears, but the people in the world who you try your best to protect."
At that time, Ji Yunshu didn't quite understand it, but it wasn't until later that she gradually understood this sentence.
The more ambitions inflate, the more people in the world will rise up and resist in the end.
A generation of emperors will become the next "Qin Shi Huang"!
Seeing that she was a little lost, Jing Rong said softly.
"Thank you!"
"I didn't say anything!" She raised her drooping eyes, and said calmly without turning her head.
"But you woke up this king."
"That's how smart the lord is."
This made Jing Rong smile knowingly.
Indeed, Ji Yunshu did not contribute any good advice to him, but he said a few words casually.
Um!
Just casually said a few words.
She doesn't want to take credit, and he won't force it on her.
The carriage stopped outside the palace gate.
After the two got off the carriage, they each went to a different palace.
When they parted, Jing Rong did not forget to ask her a few words, and told her to wait at the south gate.
Ji Yunshu complied with everything, and followed the little eunuch who came to pick her up to the Zhangzhi Palace.
There is a stove every few steps in the hall. In the cold weather, this place completely forms a sharp contrast.
Outside the main hall, Ji Yunshu was waiting outside, the little eunuch went in to report, and came out after a while.
"Mr. Ji, please."
She followed in, the two-sleeved robe was attached to the sides, and her robes fluttered as she moved.
The straight body, without the slightest stage fright, entered the hall, and in front of him was a blue silk gauze curtain hanging down from the beam, faintly revealing the woman sitting on the imperial concubine inside.
When the veil is gradually "peeled" away!
Concubine Xiao's face that was so whitewashed that she couldn't tell her age was reflected in Ji Yunshu's eyes, and the purple-red brocade robe was still embroidered with the tail of a phoenix, and the hem of the robe and skirt also resembled a turkey flower. Tihei roses bloomed all over her body.
Fabulous!
Describe her just right.
No wonder the emperor favored her, probably, this is the reason!
After all, since ancient times, emperors have favored beauty, this is the eternal theorem.
