Rebirth of the drama: Ben Gong just wants to be salted fish

Chapter 451
Xie Jinshi is not the emperor's darling now, but with the backing of the empress dowager, he can walk sideways in the palace without any problem, so who can he be afraid of?
She bluntly asked the empress such a tricky topic, but it was just a fig leaf. Everyone knew that the empress worked so hard to compete for the princess of Nanning. Why such a good method can easily capture the heart of Princess Nanning.

Rong Jiao knew that being asked this in front of the princess, if she didn't have a good answer, it would definitely make the princess feel uncomfortable.

"Yes, I ran here and there for Princess Nanning, but it's not as nasty as you think. I'm the princess's sister-in-law, who is held in the hands of the emperor, who dares to make a decision? That person is the queen mother. No way, the emperor has already explained before the princess came back that if the princess wants to choose a good son-in-law, she must choose someone she likes, unlike some people who insist on stepping on the emperor's bottom line to make the emperor unhappy."

Rong Jiao just rolled her eyes and thought of a countermeasure. Anyway, she just needs to pull the emperor out as a shield. No matter what she says, she will always say it is her own thoughts. She was so unflattering before, so why not pull the emperor out? Dare to talk about him behind the emperor's back?

Xie Jinshi never expected that the empress had really become smarter now, and could easily solve his problem with just a few simple words.

Although Xie Jinshi is not the queen now, nor does she have as much power as her, but no matter how many people are supporting him, he will not be afraid of the queen.

"Anyway, the Empress Dowager is used to making excuses. The concubine is just a small concubine. The Empress Dowager should not take it seriously. If you want to keep in mind, you must put the Empress Dowager first in everything. The Emperor follows the world of benevolence and filial piety. Everything is against the Queen Mother, isn't the Queen afraid of objections from the former ministers?"

Rong Jiao rolled her eyes contemptuously: "Concubine Jin doesn't have to use the former ministers to oppress the palace in everything. Women in the harem are not allowed to interfere in politics, and similarly, former ministers are not allowed to have anything to do with the harem. Concubine Jin keeps silent, not because of the emperor. The place I don't know is inextricably linked with the former minister..."

She didn't continue talking, the meaning couldn't be more obvious, Xie Jinshi has never been a woman who is willing to succumb to others.

In Lingnan for so many years, he was still able to control the real power of the harem, which is also great, but now that he has fallen from the sky to the ground, I am afraid that he still cannot accept the reality.

Xie Jinshi gritted his teeth with hatred, and became more and more certain in his heart. What the queen mother said, the queen used to be so shallow-minded, grumpy, and unable to withstand a word of instigation, but now she not only refute herself with reason and evidence, but also can Set yourself up.

The more I think about it, the more I feel that what the queen mother said is absolutely correct, it is time to find someone to drive away the bad luck in the palace.

She remained calm, only thinking that she couldn't speak but the queen could bear it for a while.

"Your Majesty, the concubine has to rush to serve the Empress Dowager, so it's inconvenient to accompany her."

Xie Jinshi found an excuse and left in a hurry.

Fu Xin is like a frightened bird now, but if there is a disturbance, she must not make her very nervous.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Jin doesn't seem quite right today. This servant remembers that she and Your Majesty are at odds with each other, and will never bow their heads and admit their mistakes like today!"

Rong Jiao raised her eyebrows: "It's indeed a bit abnormal. Now it's General Rong's uniform preparing for the princess's wedding, and it's not appropriate to make extra trouble. Let's pretend we haven't seen anything. It's better to restrain yourself these days."

She just thought that her brother had waited for the spring all these years, no matter how the women in the harem would be cleaned up slowly in the future, it was not appropriate to spend a lot of time fussing with those people at this time.

"This woman has been hostile to us from the moment she appeared. Since water and fire are incompatible, we can only live and die. But now is not the time. Let her be alone for a few days. Isn't the Queen Mother backing her up? Just look at it." What waves can she make?"

Rong Jiao's attitude towards the affairs of the harem has long been calm, no matter what other people make trouble, as long as they don't come to make trouble for her, she can turn a blind eye and close her eyes, but if she has to make things difficult for herself, then she can't Blame her for being rude.

Rong Jiao thinks it's better to stay away from the cold palace for now, and it's really not appropriate for others to see through her mind in advance, digging a hole and waiting for him to dance by herself.

So he went back to his bedroom.

On the road, I saw a group of people hurrying past in a distance, their footsteps were in a hurry, and looking carefully, it was the direction to the Emperor's Hall of Mental Cultivation.

But she didn't know who came.

"Fan Xin, do you recognize those people?"

You can ask her a question, but Fan Xin shook her head: "Your Majesty, I don't know who the person walking in front is, but judging by his attire, he must be someone of high status."

She couldn't see anything famous, she only knew that she was dressed in an extraordinary way, so she must have a lot of background.

Fu Xin shook her head helplessly: "This servant knows that he is Prince You, the son of Concubine Ji, but as far as this servant knows, this prince is infatuated with Concubine Jin."

She just thought of the Prince Regent. Now the Queen is really surrounded by enemies. Originally, the Prince Regent's meddling would be enough for the Empress to have a headache. Now that there is another King You, I really don't know how lively the harem is?
Listening to what he said, Rong Jiao's brows became pimples. She is also Xie Jinshi's admirer, and she deserves to be the heroine of the original book.

It's just that this King You seems to be just a small character, and I can't remember the specifics for a while, but what I can do now is to let this person stand in the same boat as me, otherwise she doesn't need to help Concubine Ji in the cold palace.

"Fu Xin, King You has not returned to the capital all year round, why did he come back suddenly at this time? Could it be that something is wrong?"

"Your Majesty, I don't know why, King You comes back almost every few years, and never returns to the palace because of festivals. This servant also finds it very strange, and I don't know why."

Rong Jiao spread her hands and expressed that she was very helpless, if this person could not be taken in for her own use, then she must not keep him, even if it was not for herself, it was for the emperor to avoid future troubles.

"Fuxin, King You, how much do you know? Is this person easy to deal with?"

As soon as the queen opened her mouth, she wanted to clean up the family, which surprised the people around her.

"Your Majesty, even though King You is Jin Concubine's admirer, it's all happened in the past. I don't know if the talent is an enemy or a friend when he comes back now. Will he think too much?"

Fu Xin, I didn't expect that the queen would open her mouth just to deal with King You, that person is not easy to deal with casually.

"Don't be afraid. I have never been afraid of anyone, and it is the same now. I will not be afraid of people's schemes. But since King You left and didn't come back often, it only shows that he has resentment towards the emperor in his heart. If such a person is kept, he will only I'm afraid it will be bad for the emperor."

Rong Jiao recalled that King You had a twin brother who was defeated in the Inheritance War, and thought that the Emperor had killed his brother Gao Quan. The Inheritance War was a life-and-death battle, so it is normal to have casualties.
