King Qi was the first to rule out King Lu.
If the fifth child has this brain and ability, he will not be the fifth one.
Then only the sixth and seventh are left.
Old Six obviously wanted to take a step back and watch the tigers fight, but there has been a lot of hiccups these days, and Old Six may not be very big.
Old Seven - King Qi thought of Yu Jin, his eyes were cold, and he wanted to eat his flesh.
It must be Lao Qi that wolf cub can't escape!
Since Lao Qi returned to Beijing, they have had accidents one after another, changing the situation that they had been peaceful for so many years.
This time the old man's accident was obviously aimed at him, how could he have no backhand
Get rid of his helper first, then get rid of him, Lao Qi is really fast and resolute, without any hesitation.
Thinking about the years of forbearance and patience to accumulate a good reputation a little bit, but when Mr. Li ran into the street like this, he immediately became the talk of people after dinner, and his face was disgraced. For the first time, King Qi was shaken.
Could it be that he was wrong, and should be ignored like the old seventh
No, he wants to enter the palace to give his mother a word.
King Qi made up his mind and entered the palace the next day.
"Niangniang, the lord is here."
In the Yuquan Palace, a faint medicinal fragrance seems to have been pervaded since some time, and a palace maid whispered to the concubine Xian who leaned against the bedside screen and closed her eyes to rest in peace.
It was already late spring, but Concubine Xian was still wearing a jacket, and her complexion was fragile and pale.
She heard the words and opened her eyes, her voice was even lower: "Please come in."
Not long after, King Qi entered the room, and seeing Concubine Xian's face, he couldn't say those words.
Concubine Xian stepped back from the waiter and asked, "Is something wrong?"
King Qi didn't answer: "Mother concubine, you don't look very good, don't you feel comfortable?"
Concubine Xian smiled: "It's not a disease to say that you are sick, it's just that you don't have any strength. If you have something to say, if you're bored, I'll be even less energetic."
King Qi hesitated for a while, and talked about Princess Qi.
Concubine Xian closed her eyes and listened, her face became paler and she would cough when her throat itch, but she still endured it in front of King Qi.
After King Qi finished speaking, he clenched his fists hard: "My son must have been tricked by Lao Qi!"
It took a while for Concubine Xian to open her eyes, and said coldly, "I knew that it was not enough for that evil beast to be remembered in the name of the queen. He was eyeing the position of the crown prince!"
King Qi wiped his face and said fiercely: "If you have the qualifications to fight, of course you want to fight. But the son can't sit still and let the old seven ride on my head! Concubine, you also saw it. , Lao Qi has no brotherly affection for me, once he succeeds, the entire Qi Palace will be destroyed..."
Concubine Xian sighed: "Why don't concubine mother know. I shouldn't have given birth to that evil beast in the first place, and now it has caused so many twists and turns to my son."
King Qi lowered his eyes to cover the yin in his eyes, and said word by word: "Mother concubine, the son has already made a countermeasure."
"you say."
There was no window in the back room, but King Qi's eyes were directed somewhere, which was the direction of the Cining Palace.
King Qi's voice sounded in Concubine Xian's ears: "The queen mother doesn't seem to know that Princess Rongyang is dead."
Concubine Xian was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.
The empress dowager has nothing to do. One son and one daughter are adopted. The son is Emperor Jingming, and the daughter is Princess Rongyang.
Over the years, Princess Rongyang's arrogance is inseparable from the favor of the Queen Mother.
After Princess Rongyang was stabbed to death by Cui Xu, Emperor Jing Ming was worried that the queen mother would be stimulated, and blocked the news from the queen mother.
"If the queen mother knows about the death of Princess Rongyang, she will naturally know the cause of Princess Rongyang's death. In this way, no matter what reason Princess Yan has, the queen mother will not have a good impression of her, and she will be disgusted with the house. Ji Wu is annoyed at Old Seven."
Concubine Xian nodded: "Zhang'er, you're right. Although the Queen Mother looks at the wise and generous, she is also a human being, and she will be influenced by emotions. If Princess Yan hadn't done her best to avenge her mother, Princess Rongyang would have The old things that harmed the Su family would not be in the light of the day, so they would not be executed by Cui Xu himself. Although Princess Rongyang was killed by Cui Xu, it was the bitch of the Jiang family who really caused her death. The Queen Mother must understand this..."
King Qi sneered: "The father is the most filial to the empress dowager. If the empress dowager clearly expresses her dislike for Lao Qi, the father and emperor will definitely hate Lao Qi, then he will never want to get involved in the position of the prince—"
"Not necessarily." Concubine Xian shook her head.
"Mother concubine?"
Concubine Xian looked at her son with gentle eyes: "You, you don't know your father and emperor that well. Although he is filial to the queen mother, he is still an emperor after all. He won't even choose his own likes and dislikes for the position of the crown prince... so the mother-in-law has always been certain that your chances are the greatest."
If everything is according to love, she will not be a concubine Xian, and the queen will not be the queen.
"Mother, don't you just do nothing?"
"You still have to do it. That wicked beast behaves too recklessly. Keeping him is always a worry for you. What's more, let him go smoothly. If your father thinks that he is the right person for the prince, it will be bad. First, let the empress dowager suppress him, your father will be indifferent to him in the short term, and then let those courtiers you attract to find out his faults, and take turns to impeach him. When the three become tigers, your father will completely hate him. , then you can sit back and relax…”
King Qi cupped his hands: "It's still the mother and the concubine who thought it through. It's just that the queen mother rarely goes out of the palace, and the son still can't decide what method to choose to let her know about it."
Concubine Xian was silent for a while, and said, "It's not difficult. Although the Queen Mother will not leave the palace, there are people in the Cining Palace who leave the palace regularly."
"You mean—"
"Mother Chang of Cining Palace will regularly go to the temple to donate sesame oil money for the Queen Mother. This is a good opportunity to pass the news to the Queen Mother's ears."
King Qi's eyes lit up: "My son understands, thank you mother and concubine for the suggestion."
Concubine Xian urged: "Don't be impatient and make mistakes, this is no trivial matter, and it must be foolproof."
"Don't worry, mother, son understands."
Those people he raised with so much money were not raised in vain.
At the thought of silver coins, King Qi's head throbbed faintly.
Li's dowry can't be moved, and before the income of Zhuangzi's shop is received, the deficit in the house is a little big.
Concubine Xian took out a palm-sized box from the dark grid and handed it over.
"Mother-"
"Take it, the Li family makes such a thing, you take care of the entire palace by yourself, and you have plenty of money to do things well."
"Mother concubine, my son will not let you down." King Qi said with a moved face.
In the days that followed, King Qi had a hard time, and every time he saw someone, he seemed to be able to see a joke in each other's eyes.
King Qi has a good reputation outside, and he has hardly done any bad things for many years. When something happened to King Qi's mansion, people in the capital were full of freshness and enthusiasm for gossip did not fade away.
It has to be said that Princess Qi's troubles caused a lot of influence on King Qi.
In such difficult days, King Qi finally looked forward to the first day of the fourth lunar month—the day when Changmao of Cining Palace left the palace.
