Chapter 167: A Transaction
Su Youyi hadn't reached the level of explaining to the people around him, so she only said lightly: "It's not credible that she can't be clean, and Lord Ji doesn't care." Did you come to me today for something? β
was full of alienation to her, and Ji Yushen also smiled lightly.
He finally cut to the chase, "Concubine Fang, have you handled this matter too recklessly?" Since Concubine Yan didn't openly discuss this matter with you, you should avoid suspicion afterwards, why do you want to make a big fuss for fear that Concubine Xian Guifei won't know that the idea was made by you? β
Su Youyi said: "Yes, I'm just afraid that she won't know that I came up with the idea." β
Ji Yushen frowned slightly, narrowed his eyes, and listened to Su Youyi: "What you said last time, I have always remembered it in my heart. Rather than passively waiting for Concubine Xian to be ready to deal with me later, it is easier for me to take the initiative to provoke her and make her act in a hurry than to act after careful consideration. Since I can't escape the hand of the virtuous concubine after all, why should I sit still? Yan Concubine is an unexpected joy, I just pushed the boat down the river, and I can also gain an ally by the way. β
She said this to Ji Yushen, but in fact, her definition of Yan Concubine is not like this.
What she and Concubine Yan said about treating each other with sincerity is not a lie. But...... There is no need to tell Ji Yushen about this.
Ji Yushen nodded, "You guessed right, Concubine Xian was indeed angered by you." Although she did not fall into the grip of Yan Concubine's matter, but after your plan, the palace knew that she wanted to harm Concubine Fang's child, and she no longer had her former prestige in the eyes of everyone. This is a great shame for the virtuous concubine who has always attached importance to face. β
Shame and shame, wash it away.
Su Youyi said, "Did you find out something?" β
He deliberately found himself out today, thinking that Concubine Xiangui already has a corresponding plan, right?
Ji Yushen said: "Elder Li Ge is pretentious and high-minded, and he has always boasted of being high-spirited, and he rarely shows his dirty side in front of me. What I can know is that Concubine Xiangui privately ordered someone to find him, and Elder Li Ge summoned a few more princes and scholars, but I am afraid that he plans to attack the princes. β
Taifu and Bachelor?
Su Youyi said: "That Xue Daoming Xue Taifu, I don't think it's Li Ge's old person, right?" β
Ji Yushen shook his head, "No." He is the emperor's most relied on concubine, and the teacher who most often teaches lessons to the princes, how could the emperor let Li Ge Lao get involved in this matter? β
It is also said that the emperor has been jealous of Li Ge for a long time, and it is naturally impossible for him to interfere in such a matter as educating the prince.
If so, what are they going to do with the princes?
Su Youyi looked at Ji Yushen, he didn't seem to have a clue.
Even if he is Li Gelao's son-in-law, but in the end, he is a newcomer to the Li Party, and it is normal that Li Gelao will not tell him all his core secrets for a while.
What's more, when he recruited Ji Yushen as his son-in-law, he still looked like a virtuous teacher, and it was not easy to change his face for a while.
Ji Yushen can know so much, and he has tried his best.
Su Youyi said: "I know, I must be careful in the future." I have a good relationship with Mrs. Xue, he is the most frequent teacher around the princes, as long as he is not Li Ge's old person, I am much more relieved. β
Ji Yushen frowned slightly, "Because of this, I'm worried that you will be careless and underestimate the enemy." Mrs. Xue has a decent relationship with you, most of it is for the sake of the emperor's favor of you, do you really think he is impressed by your intelligence? Don't be naΓ―ve. β
Su Youyi was not surprised by this.
The identity of the harem women is all determined by the emperor, and then there are the heirs, and she is naturally no exception. Others treat her with courtesy and respect for her, all because she is the emperor's favorite concubine.
Even so, so what?
She thinks very much, whether it is the court or the harem, it is a world that does not belong to her, in this world, she is attached to the emperor and gets those respects, what's so strange?
If one day she can return to her own world, the landscape and countryside are unrestrained, and she is not uncommon with these respects and courtesies.
She smiled, "No matter what it is for, as long as this cause is not abolished, it will naturally not change, right?" β
Ji Yushen's face changed for a moment.
"Are you so sure that the emperor will always favor you?"
Su Youyi shook her head, "How fortunate are men in the world, and the emperor is a harem of three thousand flowers, and I ...... Where did you get the ability to say that you must always be favored by the emperor? β
Ji Yushen always felt that what she wanted to say in the place where she stopped was that she couldn't even keep him.
He didn't, but that wasn't her problem.
Ji Yushen smiled reluctantly, and his always quiet expression rarely had a crack.
His voice was a little bitter and cold, "It's me who said it, you do have this ability, the emperor treats you differently from other concubines after all." β
Su Youyi brought it casually, "I borrowed the good words of the adult, and thank the lord for coming to tell me today, I remember this favor." If there is any difficulty in the court that will make me useful, just ask. β
After saying goodbye, he bowed and walked down the steps of the rockery.
Ji Yushen stood on a high place, independent of his life, and smiled slightly wryly, "It turns out that in her heart, I helped her because I valued her favor, and I wanted to use her to please the emperor in front of her." No wonder, no wonder. β
He muttered to himself several times in a row, looking at the back of Shuya helping Su Youyi to leave under the rockery, his eyes were terrifyingly deep, "No wonder you are willing to accept my help." If not, wouldn't you even want to say a word to me? β
Shuya accompanied Su Youyi back, and along the way, Su Youyi told her what Ji Yushen said, and Shuya was quite surprised.
"Mother, there is something that the slave maid can't figure out."
"What's the matter?"
Shuya said seriously: "You said that Master Ji is the son-in-law of Li Gelao, and Li Gelao has no son, so he will have to rely on Lord Ji in the future." Master Ji, why is this difficult? It's also too strange to betray his wife and father-in-law for an old friend. β
Su Youyi sneered, "What's so strange about this? What a smart man the emperor is, a young and promising king, a king who is afraid of the factional forces in the court and the central government and wants to uproot him. Ji Yushen is also a smart person, maybe he saw through this and thought that he had a better chance of winning by taking refuge in the emperor. β
The emperor is rising like the sun, and it is becoming more and more majestic.
And Li Ge is already old, and he is already in the waning mountains, and his life is not long.
In the past, Su Youyi still felt that Ji Yushen wanted to use two-sided means to take advantage of it, but now that he has helped him find out the news many times, he really plans to completely join the emperor's side.
Shuya said: "Then do you mean that in order to please the emperor, Lord Ji also wants to please you, the emperor's favorite concubine?" It's not just because of old friendships. β
Su Youyi said: "I forgot to tell you something. β
