Chapter 117 The Emperor: Brother-in-law is brutal
Concubine Luo has always felt that between her and Qin Shou, those memories are like moldy melon seeds one by one. One casual bite will fill her mouth with a bitter taste, and no matter what she eats afterwards, she always feels that the taste will last forever. Needless to say, it also makes people lose the mood to eat melon seeds.

Therefore, she can never forget the bad past.

She went back to Luoshen Pavilion from Zhuluan Hall, and Shouyang greeted her when she saw that her clothes were neat and all right, so she breathed a long sigh of relief.

Concubine Luo didn't want to explain too much, she washed up again, and lay down on the bed, but couldn't fall back asleep.

After tossing and turning, finally at dawn, Shouyang came in to report, "Princess, the son-in-law is waiting in the yard, saying that he wants to enter the palace with the princess to meet the saint."

Concubine Luo stood up abruptly, she moved too fast, causing a blur in front of her eyes.

Gathering her mind, she rubbed the space between her brows and ordered, "Groom up with Ben Gong."

She tidied up, and it was already an hour later that she saw Qin Shou in the flower hall. She didn't give him a second look, and said directly, "Let's go."

Qin Shou put down the teacup and followed out, and he didn't even look sideways.

They boarded the golden car together, the two of them never had eye contact from the beginning to the end, the entire golden car was silent, and the needles could be heard.

Not long after, the palace gate was approaching, Concubine Luo got out of the car first, as soon as her toes hit the ground, she walked straight forward and walked several zhang before she realized it.

She stopped and turned her head, and saw Qin Shou on her left, not too far away, as if she had never gone far, so when she turned her head, she could see him.

She looked slightly dazed, dazed for a moment, then quickly regained her senses and continued walking forward.

The color of the smoke was as deep as ink, Qin Shou raised his foot, with his usual expressionless face.

The emperor left the court early and waited in the south study room. Concubine Luo led the people in directly, raised a smile and said to the saint, "How did brother know that Mimi is coming here today?"

The sage stood up, put one hand on his waist, cut his back with the other hand, and said with a smile, "I've been waiting every day, and today just happened to be my wish."

After finishing speaking, his eyes fell on Qin Shou. Qin Shou lifted his robe, knelt down on one knee and said, "I have met the saint, and the saint is blessed and safe."

"Let's get up," the emperor said with a false pretense, "It's shady today, and I'll accompany you to the Imperial Garden for a walk."

Concubine Luo and Qin Shou should be right.

The three of them went to the imperial garden unhurriedly, followed by the majestic Gong'e eunuch behind them.

Concubine Luo took half a step forward, holding the emperor's arm, her posture was intimate and charming, ever since she met the emperor, she had never lost the smile on her face.

Qin Shou was the last one. He glanced at the face-to-face eunuchs behind him, and frowned slightly.

Not long after he left, the saint waved his sleeves and said coldly to the eunuchs and eunuchs, "You wait here, I have something to say to the emperor's son-in-law."

All the court eunuchs naturally responded.

The emperor grabbed Qin Shou's hand and said with a smile, "You better come forward, otherwise I won't be able to hear you."

This place is just a lake. There is a pavilion in the middle of the lake, and there are winding nine-turn corridors on it, which is exquisite and beautiful.

The three of them walked along the corridor and on the lake, feeling refreshed by the breeze, which was rare and pleasant.

"My son-in-law, what do you think of the moment?" the emperor asked with a half-smile.

Qin Shou glanced at the people on the shore pointingly, "We can't be optimistic, all the demons dare to join the saint, but the saint is powerless."

It would be disrespectful for others to say this, but when Qin Shou said it, even Concubine Luo couldn't refute it.

The sage didn't take it seriously, he cut his hands behind his back, and said, "Then in the eyes of the son-in-law, there is nothing I can do?"

"That's not true," Qin Shou shook his head, thinking, "The crisis in the capital can shake the Lord, but there are only two parties, one is the family, and the other is the two or three princes, but I don't think the minister will mention it, the sage also knows it in his heart .”

The emperor smiled, and he led the two of them to walk a short distance to the gazebo in the middle of the lake. He pointed to the mirror-like surface of the lake, and said, "The draft is held every three years. I like to run on this lake, and I often hear about falling into the water, and I have never figured it out until now, why these beautiful girls keep coming here one after another when they know this."

Qin Shou hooked the corner of his mouth, "It's probably because the saints often come here."

As soon as the words fell, the two looked at each other and smiled.

Concubine Luo looked at the two with a frown, brought the conversation back, and asked bluntly, "Since the son-in-law is also clear, how should the son-in-law deal with the two parties?"

Hearing this, Qin Shou looked at her squarely, and said quietly, "It all depends on what the sage wants to achieve. Should he cut the momentum and suppress it, or cut the weeds and root them out?"

"Of course it's cutting grass and roots!" Concubine Luo replied without thinking.

Emperor Xi Chaosheng hesitated, he glanced at Concubine Luo, and felt that what she said was right, but he still thought there was something wrong, so he asked Qin Shou, "What do you think?"

Qin Shou understands the emperor's temperament better than anyone else, and he doesn't care, "Is it a minister? You probably suppressed it first, and then weeded out the roots when the time is right."

After finishing the words, he looked at the two brothers and sisters who were lost in thought, with their hands behind their backs, rubbed their index fingers on their thumbs and said, "After all, the aristocratic family has a profound heritage, just take the Sima family, the emperor's master of the three dynasties, the relationship is even more complicated, and the emaciated camel Bigger than a horse, better creature to make the best use of it."

The emperor clapped his hands together, "This method is very good."

Concubine Luo didn't feel that something was wrong, she asked immediately, "How do I get it? You need to know that among the four great families in the capital, except for the Gu family, the other three are not easy to deal with."

When mentioning the Gu family, Qin Shou's expression changed slightly, but neither Concubine Luo nor the emperor noticed.

He thought about it for a moment, and then said, "The Feng family is an imperial merchant, and they don't participate in government affairs. They are the best for the aristocratic family to deal with. Merchants, if they lose their money, they can only be manipulated by others."

In the previous life, he did that, forcing the Feng family to take the money and board his thief boat, otherwise, where did he get so much money to conspire against him.

You need to know that rebellion also costs a lot of money.

"However, a sage can also grant power to the Feng family. The Feng family only has wealth but no power. This is the most irresistible thing the Feng family can do. Threats and lures are nothing more than that." Qin Shou said, such a method is nothing to him. It's easy to come by.

Concubine Luo figured it out almost instantly, the lord of the world, the most powerful and respected person, no one is bigger than her elder brother, so if the emperor's elder brother personally grants the Feng family a glorious lintel status, the Feng family must be eager to do so.

"How should Sima's family and Shangguan's family deal with it?" Concubine Luo's eyes were bright, and she was quite pleasing to the eyes when she saw Qin Shou.

Speaking of these two families, even Qin Shou frowned, the vermilion color was so bright and scarlet that one wanted to roll up his sleeves and wipe it.

"The Sima family is naturally noble, with peaches and plums all over the world. Now the entire court, most of the civil servants, are afraid that they have something to do with Sima. To solve such a family, it is not difficult or easy. Let's see if the sage can do it." Qin Shou didn't like the Sima family.

Gein used to be the emperor when he ascended the throne, and this family was the most troubled. Later, in a fit of rage, he imprisoned all members of the Sima family in death row.

"Why don't you do it?" Concubine Luo asked suddenly.

Qin Shou sneered, but he was indifferent, "The princess can ask the sage if he can do anything to Empress Sima."
