After being a widow, the empress dowager was favored by the powerful ministers

Chapter 73 Change of Dynasty
The marriage between Prince Jing and a girl from the Qi family is scheduled for late May.

In the name of Prince Jing's Mansion, Sheng Baoling added a lot of makeup to the girl of the Qi family. This matter was obscure and few people knew about it. After King Jing knew about it, he met Sheng Baoling on the same day to express his gratitude.

Knowing this, the Qi family felt a little bit overwhelmed in their hearts.

King Jing and the little emperor are now in two camps, and this marriage has firmly bound the Qi family and King Jing together.

Originally, Qi Jun still had scruples, but after finding out about this, he knew in his heart that if there was no Queen Mother, King Jing would never have such financial resources, and would even add makeup to his sister.

I'm afraid that some of the rumors in the capital are not credible, and the empress dowager and the little emperor may not have a heart-to-heart relationship.

This marriage may be another kind of luck for the Qi family.

Pei Ci and Sheng Gong also discovered Sheng Baoling's move.

Pei Ci knew exactly what Sheng Baoling wanted to do, and was not surprised by it.

But Sheng Gong didn't understand. He didn't understand what the younger sister who had grown up with was thinking now.

Helping King Jing is tantamount to fighting against the little emperor.

What exactly does she want to do, do you want to imitate the Queen Mother?
Sheng Gong couldn't let go of his heart, so he searched for a day, went down to court, and found Sheng Baoling.

Now that Sheng Baoling's identity is different, it is difficult for him as an elder brother to meet him.

Sheng Baoling dismissed the rest of the palace people, leaving only Jian Jia and Qiuyi to serve in the palace.

"Why did brother suddenly want to see Baoling today?"

Sheng Gong stared at Sheng Baoling in front of him. The younger sister in front of him was still the same younger sister, but it seemed to be a little different.

The younger sister in the palace, and the younger sister in the Sheng Mansion that day, seem to be two completely different people.

He frowned, "What do you think about King Jing's marriage?"

Sheng Baoling had thought for a long time that Sheng Gong would find out sooner or later, but he didn't expect that so soon, so he came to ask himself.

"What does brother think, what does sister think?"

Sheng Gong looked a little anxious, as if he wanted to get some accurate answers from Sheng Baoling.

The rise and fall of the Sheng family, to put it bluntly, is now closely related to Sheng Baoling. Once Sheng Baoling goes the wrong way, the Sheng family will be the next Fan family.

The current situation of the Fan family is obvious to all.

Sheng Gong's worries were not without reason.

His eyes were worried, and he opened his lips, wanting to ask, but he was afraid of asking abruptly.

On the contrary, Sheng Baoling seemed to have read Sheng Gong's guess, and said what was there, "Brother is worried about his sister, will he follow the example of his grandmother back then?"

It is indeed Sheng Gong's worry that Sheng Baoling will follow the example of Queen Mother Fan.

Sheng Gong sighed slightly, "Brother will naturally support what you want to do, but you should always think about it carefully, in case he wants to kill you in the future..."

Sheng Baoling was slightly taken aback, and looked at his elder brother in surprise.

She thought that Sheng Gong came here to ask questions for the Sheng family, but from Sheng Gong's words, she could only hear that he was worried about her younger sister.

Worried that the little emperor would kill him in the future.

Worried that I would end up like my grandmother.

Sheng Baoling couldn't help feeling warm, and the corners of his mouth curled up, "Don't worry, brother, my sister doesn't follow my grandmother's ideas."

Country and power are not what she wants, what she wants is freedom, and if she can't get freedom, what she wants is to give the world a wise king who can benefit the people.

But now it seems that Zhao Mi is not the Mingjun.

She just wanted to let that seat be replaced by someone else.

In Sheng Gong's heart, he was even more worried. If he didn't imitate the Queen Mother's idea, why would she help King Jing?

Could it be that she wants to...

Sheng Gong didn't dare to think any more.

Sheng Baoling didn't continue talking, she knew that if people from the Sheng family were aware of this kind of thing at this time, they would definitely stop her.

Not only would the Sheng family not support it, perhaps the elder brother would also persuade him.

But now, the little emperor has signs like in the dream, if those dreams are a warning, she must not be unprepared, like in the dream, step by step to the end.

On the way out of the palace and back to Sheng's mansion, Sheng Gong was full of worries, and when he met colleagues along the way, he was not in the mood to talk.

When meeting Pei Ci at the gate of the palace, Sheng Gong's restless mood seemed to find a breakthrough, and he pulled Pei Ci straight to the restaurant in the city.

The guards around Pei Ci wanted to stop him, but they couldn't grab him at all.

Pei Ci said calmly, "I didn't bring any money."

The implication is that he has no money to pay for the restaurant.

Sheng Gong's face darkened, he pulled Pei Ci and walked inside, "I'll pay, will I pay?"

When the prime minister is dignified, how can he dig and search, as if he is so poor that he has no money to eat.

Looking at Pei Ci's body, Sheng Gong even suspected that the Pei family was indeed too poor to eat.

"I heard that you have been in frequent contact with my sister recently, has she ever mentioned the matter of King Jing to you?" Sheng Gong asked Pei Ci tentatively.

If Sheng Baoling wants to change the dynasty, he must find helpers, and Pei Ci is the most suitable person.

If you want to know if Sheng Baoling has this idea, come to Pei Ci and ask around, maybe you can find out something.

With his many years of friendship with Pei Ci, he will definitely not hide it from himself.

Sheng Gong thought so.

However, Pei Ci just ate his food and drank his tea. Hearing Sheng Gong's question, he only responded with one or two sentences, "What's the matter with King Jing?"

It seemed that he couldn't understand what Sheng Gong was saying.

Sheng Gong thought that he didn't explain clearly, and Pei Ci really didn't understand, so he asked again, "The marriage between King Jing and the Qi family."

Pei Ci denied it, "I never mentioned it."

As a good friend for many years, he clearly knew that with Sheng Gong's staid temperament, if he knew that Sheng Baoling wanted to support King Jing, he would definitely dissuade him.

What's more, Sheng Gong has never been careful, and he can't hide his thoughts.

If this matter is known to him, there will definitely be trouble.

Seeing that he came out of the palace, Sheng Baoling didn't reveal anything to him, so he pulled himself here to ask, hoping to get what he wanted to know from himself.

Sheng Gong frowned, could it be that he was too suspicious?

At this time, Sheng Gong didn't doubt Pei Ci at all, and he didn't even think that Pei Ci, a good friend for many years, would help Sheng Baoling to deceive himself.

As a result, he was relieved a lot, and he had a good taste when he ate.

Because of this, Pei Ci couldn't calm down for a long time.

...

"The Ai family said it, don't mention it again...don't bother with this matter anymore!"

"Take a good look at me and trust me." Pei Cihong's eyes were red, and he held Sheng Baoling's shoulder tightly, trying to make her sober.

Sheng Baoling wanted to break free from his hand, but during the dispute, he accidentally caught the string of Buddhist beads on Pei Ci's wrist...

With a few "pops", the bracelet was torn off and the beads fell to the ground!
For a moment, the hall was so quiet that only the sound of beads rolling could be heard.

Sheng Baoling looked at the few beads that could no longer be seen on the ground, with regret in his eyes...
