After crossing, I was dragged by the bamboo horse and became a queen

Chapter 417 Rights
Empress Chen looked straight into the Empress Dowager's eyes, with a sarcastic sneer on her lips, she replied coldly: "Then I thank the Empress Dowager for her kindness."

The words were full of gunpowder, but the empress dowager didn't care about her attitude.After all, the empress dowager had already obtained the result she wanted, and she had no intention of continuing to be aggressive.

The Empress Dowager knew that with her current strength, she could not kill Empress Chen completely, so there was no need to force her too much at this time. If Empress Chen was pushed into a hurry, she would not have as many cards as others.

In fact, Empress Chen had already suffered a big loss in this round, and the Empress Dowager was still satisfied with the result.

Shangguanjing, who sat on the sidelines and watched the whole process without saying a word, gained a new understanding of the severity of Gongdou.Empress Chen, who has controlled the Six Palaces for 30 years and held a lot of power, can be encircled and suppressed by people to this extent. Then even if she bypasses the Queen Mother and Concubine Lin to take power in the future, she cannot relax her vigilance.

To a certain extent, rights can be regarded as security, but power is also a coveted bait.If the person who holds power is not strong and smart enough, he may soon face the same situation as Empress Chen today.

"So, it's not enough to be in power in the harem." After listening to Shangguan Jing's complete retelling, Xiao Jingheng finally came to this conclusion: "It is necessary to control both the front court and the harem in our hands, so as to reduce a little threat."

"In other words, gaining power has never been an easy task." Shangguan Jing curled her lips: "Let's not mention the great power and responsibility, just relying on the fact that there are more people to replace it, it is not an easy task to hold power. Where are so many peace of mind."

"Jing'er blames me?" Xiao Jingheng made a guilty look: "If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have to suffer all this."

"Okay." Shangguan Jing unceremoniously picked up the memorial in front of him and tapped Xiao Jingheng's forehead lightly: "Stop acting, work quickly! There are many things to do!"

"Yes, lady!" Xiao Jingheng nodded obediently, and at the same time took out a list from the bottom of a pile of memorials and handed it to Shangguan Jing: "The biggest thing right now is the palace banquet for the envoys at the end of the year. Empress Chen's fight for power, I'm afraid she has forgotten this matter long ago. We have to find an opportunity to remind her that she is our shield. This is the list of important ministers and wives I drafted to attend the palace banquet. You Take a look first, if you have no objections, show it to the imperial grandmother tomorrow."

"You're trying to make trouble..." Shangguan Jing glanced at the invitation list, and couldn't help but burst out laughing: "It's just a few honest princes and princesses who never make trouble, there must be some status The decoration is tall and silent. On the side of the court officials, the prime minister's faction and the princeling party are divided between three and seven. The prime minister, the Taiwei and the Su University scholar needless to say, but you only plan to invite the ministers of the Ministry of Rites and ministers of the Ministry of War for the six ministers , but Mr. Yang and Mrs. Yang were listed. Not to mention the generals, apart from my father and mother, the commanders in front of the palace and the generals of the Jinwu Guards on the left and right are your father's emperor, and a semi-retired man will come later. General Zhen Guo is the grandfather of Cousin Lingyao's future husband's family."

"If Prime Minister Chen sees this list, I'm afraid the old man will be outraged right away? And Empress Chen, it's no wonder that Empress Chen is not angry to death!"

"We don't care about it." Xiao Jingheng smiled softly: "Let the emperor's grandmother make the decision. If she thinks it's inappropriate, she can change to someone else. If she doesn't want to change, she must nod and agree, so we can hire people according to the list. The emperor's grandmother makes the decision. As the master, even if Empress Chen and Prime Minister Chen are not happy, they will complain to the master. What does it matter to us? We have only been in the East Palace for a few days? Is it not normal for lack of experience and lack of thoughtfulness in handling things? It's a companion, so long as the Sui Gong envoy can't find fault with this kind of diplomatic palace banquet, we will be successful."

"Heh..." Shangguan Jing sneered: "I hope that Prime Minister Chen can see the big picture."

"There is no need for his special cooperation." Xiao Jingheng replied indifferently: "Isn't he just slacking off at the moment? If he has the ability, he will continue to do nothing. What is so great is just calling it sick and evading it, and not attending the palace banquet. What can I do. "

"If that's the case, it's a good thing." Shangguan Jing frowned, and smiled again: "Diplomacy is a big deal, right? How can the prime minister be absent? Of course, as the prince, you can't be too unreasonable. The prime minister is not feeling well, so naturally he has to be sympathetic."

"Therefore..." Xiao Jingheng also laughed, and he had already guessed Shangguanjing's plan: "Your Excellency is not young, and you need to rest if you are not feeling well. Too much fatigue is not good for your body. In such a big country, government affairs are done every day. It’s so complicated, you can’t put all these on the prime minister alone, can you?”

"Yes!" Shangguan Jing nodded seriously: "Even if the prime minister is willing to ruin the country, we can't treat him so harshly, right? When necessary, we still have to find someone to share the pressure of the prime minister."

"My wife is right in everything." Xiao Jingheng stretched out his hand and tapped Shangguanjing's nose: "Tomorrow I will mention it to my father. Prime Minister Chen has been acting as a wooden man in the court for long enough."

"There is no need to worry about it." Shangguan smiled quietly: "I guess the prime minister's office has already got the news about the matter of Empress Chen and Chen Cainu. Let's see what happens to him tomorrow. Prime Minister Chen is not a fool, and he should know why the emperor Acquiescing to the empress dowager to punish his granddaughter so severely. Why, let him be passive and lazy to show his face, and not allow your father to punish the empress and concubine to show him? If he is really determined, then continue to pretend to be dead."

"Given the current situation in the court, the Chen family can't be moved easily." Xiao Jingheng replied: "After all, the Chen family has many officials, and many of them are in important positions. Besides, we also need to consider the check and balance with other big families. It is not right to carve up them. It’s a good time. But it’s time to slowly start to disperse and weaken his power.”

"It's been a few days since my father recommended Mr. Yang," Shangguan Jing replied after thinking for a while, "If it's going to happen, there should be some news. I'll go to Hanchun Hall tomorrow and ask my eldest sister to mention it. Why not use the ready-made favorite concubine. Let my eldest sister blow the pillow wind to your father, let him make a decision quickly."

"Alright." Xiao Jingheng nodded: "Empress Chen and the imperial grandmother just had a fierce conflict, if Lord Yang is really promoted to a Bachelor of Baowen Pavilion and a Bachelor of Imperial Academy at this time, then Prime Minister Chen will not be able to sit still. "

"By the way," Shangguan Jing suddenly remembered another thing: "When you see my father tomorrow, you should remind Lin Sixing to protect the media."

　---Here is the dividing line of power and charming eyes--
　　Is having power the same as having a talisman?Not always.Even if you are in a high position, there are many people who are thinking about seizing power!
　　There is a saying that goes well, if you fight hard, you dare to pull the emperor off his horse.There are plenty of daring people!Under the temptation of power, it is never uncommon for speculators to fight for their lives.

　　What happened to Empress Chen made Xiao Jingjing very vigilant.
