The reborn abandoned woman reigns

Chapter 99 Conspiracy
With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Changsun Jingrong said: "Well, I will follow you. You just said you have something to say, what is it?"

Hearing this, Xiao Runiang hurriedly sat up straight, and said seriously: "That's right, last night, I heard from my master that Old General Xue sent a letter to the emperor, and the prince was mentioned in the letter!"

"If it's just that, then it's nothing," Changsun Jingrong said with relief, "The prince is helping General Xue sort out the military references recently, and it's only natural that General Xue would mention it, so there's no need to make a fuss."

"My concubine made a mistake. General Xue said in his letter that after his daughter returned to Beijing, he hoped that the prince would take care of her, because General Xue was busy compiling books! Listen, it's not obvious that her daughter is going to be stuffed. Give it to the prince, you don't even cover it up, you really treat others as blind!"

Xiao Runiang was very angry, she sat there groaning, her eyes were full of contempt, it seemed that Xue Lingruo was standing in front of her, wishing to point her nose and curse a few words to relieve her anger.

On the other hand, Changsun Jingrong looked calm and calm. After thinking for a moment, he said slowly: "I think General Xue is away all the time, and there is no one in his house. I am afraid that the slaves are also gone. I will ask someone to help take care of Miss Xue." , It is also common sense. It seems that after the next year, I will tidy up a guest room in the palace and come out."

Seeing Changsun Jingrong's calm and relaxed look, Xiao Runiang couldn't help but said angrily: "Someone is coming to snatch your husband, why aren't you angry at all? And not after the year, General Xue said in a letter that the date has been moved up, In ten or eight days, I will return to the capital with the army!"

The movements were slightly concentrated, and the eldest grandson Jingrong's eyes were blurred, as if he was thinking about something.

And this kind of grandson's appearance seems to be in line with Xiao Runiang's mind, she leaned forward slightly, and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, it's okay even if the woman stays in the palace temporarily, as long as the prince lives with you every day, don't let it spread out." Any gossip will not give the Xue family an opportunity."

His eyes flickered, Changsun Jingrong moved his eyes, looked at Xiao Runiang and said, "Ri Ri, sleep with me!?"

"Of course," Xiao Ruiniang said with her head held high, "and let that woman see the prince's love for you, so as not to have any thoughts here! I remember that Xue Lingruo is also a noble person. If you put your heart and soul into it, you might just give up."

Changsun Jingrong didn't listen carefully to Xiao Runiang's last words, but the first sentence made her frown.

If Xue Lingruo really lived in the palace, it would be tantamount to finding himself in a big trouble and coming back, facing Sima Xukong every night, it would be a kind of torment.No, she can't watch these things happen and do nothing!

Straightening his body, Changsun Jingrong fixed his eyes on Xiao Runiang and asked, "If this happened to you, what are you going to do?"

"If it were me, I would definitely have caused an 'accident' to that woman before she came to the house, and she couldn't come!" Xiao Runiang said angrily, "Since her excuse is that no one is taking care of her, then find a trustworthy For example, you can ask the Empress Dowager to send an aunt in the palace to take care of her, which will not only save face, show the greatness of the emperor's grace, but also keep the prince away from the storm, it can kill two birds with one stone!"

What Xiao Runiang said was indeed a solution, but Changsun Jingrong didn't want to ask the Empress Dowager to help, because in that case, she would owe a favor.She didn't want to get involved with the people in the palace, and it was too late to dodge, so how could she take the initiative to meet them?This can be said to be a bad idea.

Changsun Jingrong already knew about this matter, and would find another way by himself, so he didn't want to continue this topic, and said, "How many months have you been in this body?"

But obviously, Xiao Runiang didn't want to end it yet, and said anxiously: "Now is not the time to study my body, but to see how you want to act. The Xue family has already started, so you can think about how to deal with that Xue Lingruo?"

Inserting his fingers into his black hair, Changsun Jingrong said casually: "The boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge, and we will always find a way."

Seeing Changsun Jing's appearance, Xiao Runiang couldn't help but sighed melancholy, and said, "You, it's always wise to help others, but when it comes to yourself, you always have to muddle through, so you will suffer in the future!"

"A loss is a blessing, maybe I will have good luck," Changsun Jingrong smiled, and then said, "By the way, I asked you about the last time, how did you ask?"

Xiao Runiang knew that Changsun Jingrong was asking about his husband's final choice.But she is a woman, so she can't get in the way on this matter. Even if she is a Hedong lion, Gu Shiyong still has his own insistence on this kind of matter. It was up to Gu Shiyong to make the decision.

Seeing Xiao Runiang fell silent, Changsun Jingrong knew the answer.But these seemed to be within her expectations, and she smiled comfortingly: "Madam Gu doesn't have to be so disappointed, you have already helped Jingrong, and I will keep this friendship in my heart."

Changsun Jingrong didn't intend to ask questions at all, but this made Xiao Runiang feel uneasy, looked up at Changsun Jingrong, and said as if as a promise: "The princess trusts me so much, I will definitely convince the husband, please rest assured, the princess!"

After hurriedly waving his hands, Changsun Jingrong said: "You are still pregnant, so you shouldn't work hard, and you don't have to worry about me."

These words seemed to remind Xiao Runiang, and she immediately gained confidence, straightened her flat stomach, and said: "Just look at the child in my stomach, that man has to listen to me! And it's not harming him, It's just for him to choose a side. The emperor let the prince enter the military department, which means reuse, and the future is limitless, follow the prince, it must be right!"

After hearing Xiao Runiang's words, Changsun Jingrong was quite satisfied, but his face still had a look of self-blame and anxiety, and said: "There is no need to hurt the harmony between you and your husband because of these things, really."

"Oh, what's such a trivial matter," Xiao Ruiniang waved her hands and smiled, "If even my man can't convince me, then I'm really ashamed to say that I am Xiao Runiang!"

Seeing the woman's insistence, Changsun Jingrong had no choice but to smile helplessly, but in his heart, after the smile passed, a cloud shrouded him.

Just when Changsun Jingrong was thinking about how to get rid of Xue Lingruo, the palace sent someone to find Changsun Jingrong and asked her to enter the palace immediately.

When Changsun Jingrong got the news, he knew that Xiao Runiang's words had come true, and the Empress Dowager might not be able to sit still anymore, so she wanted to solve Xue Lingruo's trouble.It's just that the relationship between them is complicated, and if one of them is not handled properly, it will lead to terrible consequences. No matter whether it is a member of the Xue family or a member of the royal family, no one wants to see such a thing happen, so it is very likely that the final scapegoat Or carry it by yourself.Therefore, one should be cautious when facing the people in the palace.

After tidying up at the mansion, Changsun Jingrong hurried into the palace and went straight to Fengxiang Palace.

The empress dowager and the empress seemed to be waiting for him. When they saw the figure of the eldest grandson Jingrong, they both felt a sense of relief, as if they were worried that the eldest grandson Jingrong would not appear.But soon, they adjusted their emotions and regained their grace and luxury.

Properly walking in front of the Empress Dowager, Changsun Jingrong leaned over and said, "I have met the Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager!"

"There are no outsiders here, so you don't need to be polite, get up quickly." The empress dowager smiled kindly and said, "I haven't seen you for a while, and I don't know what you are busy with every day."

Sitting up and sitting on the soft bed brought by Aunt Chang, Changsun Jingrong said with a smile: "I'm not busy with anything, it's just the first time I'm celebrating the end of the year in the palace, and there are a lot of things to prepare, and Jingrong is a stupid person who doesn't do things well. Also clumsy, will appear very busy."

"For some things, it's better to leave it to the people below. You don't have to do everything yourself." The Empress Dowager said affectionately, "Seeing that you are tired and thin now, Xu Kong must be very distressed."

The ambiguous tone made Han Wanxin cover her lips and smile, and then she sang together with the Empress Dowager, "Of course the prince is distressed, and I'm afraid he's still very upset now. Grandmother, you should talk about the Ninth Prince some other day. Don't always talk about pampering and loving others, but do it."

Smiling stiffly, Changsun Jingrong thought that dealing with people in the royal family was like this, originally there were tens of thousands of urgent things to say, but he wanted to pretend to be relaxed and comfortable, showing his calmness and patience.Well, since they are not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry?Let's gossip together.

With such a plan in mind, Changsun Jingrong relaxed and began to talk about what he had and what not, laughing from time to time.However, the relaxation of the eldest grandson Jingrong made the empress dowager and empress on the opposite side look more and more dull, and gradually, they stopped talking. described.

Finally, the Empress Dowager couldn't sit still anymore, coughed lightly, and said, "Ahem, I actually called you into the palace today because I wanted to ask you something."

Seeing that the empress dowager's expression became serious, the eldest grandson Jingrong didn't dare to joke anymore, and sat upright, sitting upright.

And the solemn appearance of Changsun Jingrong also made the Empress Dowager a little uncomfortable, and said slowly: "I don't know if you know about General Xue's letter?"

The eldest grandson Jingrong had an inexplicable look on his face, and asked, "What does General Xue's letter have to do with Jingrong? Please let the Empress Dowager express it."

"It's like this. Old General Xue wrote a letter saying that the army will return to the capital a year ago so that he can compile the records. However, General Xue's mansion has been neglected for many years and cannot be lived in for a short time. General Xue can make do with the Ministry of War, but Xue Lingruo I still need a place to stay, so I thought of Xu Kong and asked him to take care of it. The so-called care is to let Xue Lingruo live in your Ninth Prince's Mansion!"

The eldest grandson Jingrong's expression was complicated, his eyes rolled around, and he forced a smile and said: "Jingrong will clean up the palace and will never embarrass the prince."

"Jing Rong, where is the time to think about face?" Han Wanxin said with an anxious look, "The Xue family is simply going to cut it first and play later, let that woman live in the Nine Princes Mansion, and take your place!"

"Impossible," Changsun Jingrong became more and more flustered, looking at Han Wanxin with a little helplessness, and said, "Even if she wants to be a concubine, she must be married to an official matchmaker, so what's the matter with someone whose name is not right? "

"Hmph, you haven't seen Xue Lingruo's methods, what is this matter?" Han Wanxin said with a contemptuous tone, "As long as she likes it, it doesn't matter what method she uses, as long as she can get it." .”

Clenching both hands tightly, Changsun Jingrong lost the relaxation just now, his face was covered with clouds, and he murmured helplessly: "If she really wants to be the concubine, then I can't help it."

"Who said there is no way?" Seeing that the grandson Jingrong was in a mess, the empress dowager calmed down and said soothingly, "The Ai family will deal with this Xue Lingruo, and won't let her get what she wants. But you have to fight hard, Hurry up and conceive an heir, so the Ai family will have a reason to recommend you as a concubine!"

Why are you bringing this up again! ?

The eldest grandson Jingrong frowned secretly, but his face was still resigned, and he said: "If you are not up to date, there is nothing you can do about Jingrong. Hey, if it doesn't work, let Xue Lingruo enter the mansion, she is so capable, she can stop it." For a moment, it can't be stopped for a lifetime!"

"Nonsense!" The Empress Dowager said solemnly, shaking the crutch in her hand, "We can't take risks, let alone let Xue Lingruo marry into the Ninth Prince's Mansion!"

Shrinking his head timidly, Changsun Jingrong said helplessly: "But if Xue Ling insists on marrying the prince, what does the empress dowager want?"

"You stabilize the Ninth Prince first, let him spoil you alone, and then Aijia will give her another marriage."

Blinking his eyes, Changsun Jingrong said: "Xue Lingruo has liked the prince for so many years, can he easily accept the marriage you arranged?"

"It can be delayed for a while," said the Empress Dowager with a frown. "There are other ways to delay this woman. In short, the Ai family will not let her go as she wishes. You should also work hard and express your feelings. If you give birth to an heir, If you still have no heirs after half a year, the Ai family will find a way for you!"

The empress dowager's words made Changsun Jingrong's heart skip a beat, and then he raised his eyebrows to look at the empress dowager and asked, "What... do you want to do?"

With her eyes wide open, the Empress Dowager said sullenly: "You don't need to know that now, you just need to serve Xu Kong well to show your love! When General Xue returns to court, the Emperor will definitely hold a palace dinner, and Xue Lingruo will also appear , when the time comes, you should know what to do, right?"

Nodding obediently, the eldest grandson Jingrong said, "Jingrong knows."

Looking at the appearance of the eldest grandson Jingrong, the Empress Dowager gradually lost her anger, and said slowly: "Jingrong, the Ai family is not talking about you, you have business intentions, why not think about how to stabilize your position in the palace. What do women want so much money for, using their children to stabilize a man's heart is the serious thing!"

Although he disagreed in his heart, Changsun Jingrong still nodded hurriedly on the surface, with a look of great agreement.

After explaining a few more words, the Empress Dowager asked her eldest grandson Jingrong and Han Wanxin to retreat under the pretext of taking a nap.

Without the presence of the elders, the two women of similar age didn't have so many worries. Instead, they could say a few more thoughtful words when communicating with each other.

The two walked side by side under the long winding pavilion. Han Wanxin retracted her hands, her eyes were melodious, and said: "One year is going to pass again, time flies so fast."

"Yeah, I feel like I still have a lot of things to do, and I'm one year older." Changsun Jingrong said with a smile.

Her footsteps stopped slowly, Han Wanxin looked sideways at her eldest grandson Jingrong, frowned slightly, and said, "You also know that your youth is passing, so why don't you seize the opportunity and grasp your own happiness? I envy you very much, you can now do what you like, distinguish between good and evil, and live without being cautious. But such days are short after all, and our identities doom us to not live that kind of willful life. Calculate, if you take a wrong step, you will lose everything! Now Xue Lingruo is your obstacle, you have to overcome her, not hide from her! Don't think that taking a step back will lead to a bright future, countless examples in the palace can tell you, you Your kindness and tolerance will only allow your enemies to gain an inch and snatch everything that belongs to you! And you, who have nothing, will only be abandoned like a useless waste! You listen to what I say, and grab the Ninth Prince! , must not let Xue Lingruo marry into the palace!"

The eldest grandson Jingrong nodded, and said: "Don't worry, empress, for my own sake, I will not just sit idly by."

Looking at the grandson Jingrong tenderly, Han Wanxin patted the grandson Jingrong's hand half-sighing and half-seriously, and said: "The victory or defeat depends on one action. You must not underestimate the enemy. This is not only related to your future, And the survival of your family! Therefore, you must use all your energy to defeat that woman!"

"Your Majesty, don't worry, the mirror will definitely live up to the mission!"

Seeing the resolute expression of the eldest grandson Jingrong, Han Wanxin nodded in relief.After another journey, Han Wanxin returned to Fengxiang Palace, and the Empress Dowager did not take a nap, but sat on the tavern with her eyes half-opened and half-closed.

Hearing the sound, the Empress Dowager looked up and asked in a low voice: "How?"

"The minister has clearly explained all the interests and interests to her. Presumably, Changsun Jingrong himself knows the seriousness of the situation and will not sit still. He will definitely follow our arrangement."

After hearing these words, the Empress Dowager seemed to let go of the weight in her heart, exhaled lightly, and looked like she was asleep.

It's just that Han Wanxin was still puzzled, she rubbed her handkerchief, and said cautiously: "Grandmother, didn't we want our eldest grandson Jingrong to beg us? Made a wedding dress for her?"

The lines on the corners of the mouth were deepened because of the smile, showing vicissitudes and helplessness, the empress dowager closed her eyes slightly, and said slowly: "Oh, because in the game just now, we were the ones who were the first to lose our composure and let her take the initiative. She is really a cautious woman, maybe she might not lose in the duel with Xue Lingruo!"
