Chapter 129
"In this way, the emperor can reap the benefits of being a fisherman. In the past, we deliberately neglected our Han family, but let the Fang family grow stronger. Fortunately, the Fang family has not yet become a climate, otherwise it will be more difficult for the emperor to deal with. In order to reverse this situation In this situation, the emperor will definitely balance the forces of all parties, and for our Han family, we will start with you, Han Wanxin! Just wait, the emperor will favor you in a short time!"

"Really!" Han Wanxin looked at the Empress Dowager in disbelief, her hands trembling, and asked, "Isn't the emperor's grandmother saying this to make Wanxin happy?"

"Where does the Ai family have so much time to gossip with you?" The Empress Dowager said with a smile, "You have to prepare well in the past few days, and the Ai family does not ask you to be like the eldest grandson Jing, to be an explanation." Yuhua, I just ask you to be quiet, don't make any noise, and make the emperor feel bored. The emperor is upset recently, if you ask too much, you will only push him to other women. On the contrary, if you can be quiet, As elegant as a daffodil, it can calm the emperor's impetuous heart a lot. I wonder if you remember what Ai Jia said?"

"Grandmother, don't worry, I've kept everything in mind!" Han Wanxin said happily, "This time, I will definitely seize the opportunity to win over the emperor's heart!" "

"The emperor's heart is the most illusory. It's better to give birth to the dragon son as soon as possible. That's the business." The empress dowager said earnestly, "Go back and ask the old people in the palace for advice, and drink more soup to recuperate your body. You If she can conceive a dragon son, the Ai family's heart will be relieved."

In the past, if these things happened, it was Aunt Chang who came forward to help coordinate, but today I haven't seen Aunt Chang, Han Wanxin couldn't help asking: "Grandmother, has Aunt Chang not come back yet? She also went to the Ninth Prince's Mansion." It’s been a while, but what did you find out?”

The complexion sank slightly, and the Empress Dowager said: "The Ai family heard that the woman who identified Fang Taishi came from the Ninth Prince's Mansion. Ai's family didn't hear about it, but the Ninth Prince has something to do with Fang Taishi. At this time What good will it do him to make up a knife? Or, what good will it do for Changsun Jingrong?"

Han Wanxin thought for a while, then smiled and said: "Empress Dowager, isn't this simple? It must be the eldest grandson Jingrong who is showing his favor to us! The grand master Fang is from the Fang family. You take the credit. It seems that Changsun Jingrong is serious this time, and we have a right-hand man!"

Looking at Han Wanxin who was smiling all over her face, the Empress Dowager was not so happy. She sighed softly and said, "I'm afraid that girl is planning something in her heart, so let us have a good time. Forget it, let's not think about her for now." , when Aunt Chang returns, the Ai family will discuss it with her. Your most urgent task now is to take the opportunity to capture the emperor, remember it!"

The vicissitudes in the court seem to have no effect on the common people, and the street market is still bustling with shouts and shouts.The hawkers who come and go are also full of enthusiasm, dreaming of changing their hard-working hands to a prosperous life.

But today's eldest grandson Jingrong seemed to be in a bad mood, he had just walked out of the new shop with a stack of receipts in his hand, and his face was a bit gloomy.

It turned out that Zhang Liangmian hurried to find her just now and said that the imperial court had issued an inscription, which stated that, in view of the recent circulation of the loan algorithm among the people, which harmed the interests of the people, he ordered the store to be closed for rectification.Now this news has been suppressed by Zhang Liangmian and will not be spread.But the paper can't contain the fire after all, if the common people know the news, the consequences will be unimaginable.

There is no need to investigate this kind of thing, Changsun Jingrong knew that it must be the trick of another bank, they saw that they could not compete seriously, so they thought of these dirty tricks.It's just that her eldest grandson Jingrong is the one who is plotted against and keeps silent?If you want to murder her, you will have to pay the price!

Taking a deep breath, Changsun Jingrong stepped forward and hurried forward.I don't know if it's because of his impatience today, Changsun Jingrong always felt as if someone around him was watching his every move, so he couldn't help but stop and look around, but he didn't find any clues.Thinking of what Sima Xukong said in his heart, Tacize was also stranded in the capital, Changsun Jingrong couldn't help but squinted his eyes, and chose the main road instead, without any delay on the way, he went straight back to the palace.

As soon as he approached the gate, Changsun Jingrong saw Aunt Chang walking out with packed things on her back.After a pause, Changsun Jingrong put on a concerned look, opened his lips and asked, "Aunt Chang is going back?"

"Yes, the Empress Dowager sent someone to send a message to let the old slave return to the palace," Aunt Chang said with a gentle smile to the eldest grandson Jingrong, "I have been bothering the palace during this time, and the Ninth Prince and the Ninth Concubine also Take care!"

"What did my aunt say? If it weren't for my aunt to help us these days, the life in this house would be even more hectic. However, the empress dowager can't live without my aunt. I will come out again when my aunt is not busy. The palace is a guest at the house."

"Okay, princess, please take care too." She saluted the eldest grandson Jingrong again, and Aunt Chang left the palace neatly.

Watching Aunt Chang leave, as soon as her figure disappeared, the smile on her face disappeared, she turned around and walked back to the room.

Knowing that their eldest grandson Jingrong was in a bad mood, both Bihe and Qiao Shan'er were helpless.They knew that they couldn't help Changsun Jingrong, and if they made noise, they might upset him, so they left the room silently, leaving Changsun Jingrong to clean up for a while.

Sitting alone in the room under the evening sun, feeling the warm afterglow, the eldest grandson Jingrong's heart was as cold as ice, without the slightest warmth.

She asked herself, in fact, she should be happy to see Aunt Chang leave, shouldn't she?Finally tonight, I don't have to fight wits with that man in the same room.But after being left alone, why do I feel a little bit of loss lingering in my heart?Could it be that I was bewitched by that fellow Sima Xukong...

Shaking his head vigorously, Changsun Jingrong told himself silently that it must be because of the troubles in the bank that he would be unhappy.There are so many things to be busy now, how can I still have time to sit here and think about what I have?It's really becoming more and more ignorant.

Thinking so in his heart, Changsun Jingrong got up and shook his limbs, then walked to the door and opened the door. Just as he was about to order the two maids to prepare something for him, he saw the guy who disturbed his heart.

Frowning slightly, Changsun Jingrong asked coldly: "You are not in the military department at this time, what are you doing when you come back?"

Facing the elder grandson Jingrong's words, Sima Xukong said strangely: "Isn't this the Nine Princes' Mansion? Why is it wrong for me to go back to my own home? Jingrong, isn't Aunt Chang gone? Why are you still unhappy?"

Lowering his eyes in a panic, Changsun Jingrong defended himself: "This matter has nothing to do with Aunt Chang, but you, why did you come back so early? Could it be that the Ministry of War has started a holiday again?"

"That's not true. The emperor began to vigorously investigate Fang Taishi's case, and the official department was short of manpower, so he borrowed a lot of people from the military department. Hey, it sounds good, it's called borrowing people, it's not good to say, it's just those officials. The guys in the Ministry are afraid that Grand Master Fang will rebel and put them in danger, so they asked someone to protect them! Tsk tsk, they are all Long Rui's men, how can some people be greedy for life and fear death, while others are loyal and courageous!"

Seeing Sima Xukong's sympathetic expression, Changsun Jingrong couldn't help but sneered and said, "Since the lord is angry, why not complain to the emperor?"

Seeing the eldest grandson Jingrong turning back and sitting at the table, Sima Xukong also followed behind her, and asked with a smile: "Jingrong, where were you going just now?"

"You care too much, aren't you tired?" Changsun Jingrong frowned and put the bills into the book, then looked directly at Sima Xukong, and said, "Aunt Chang has already gone back, there is no need for you to continue now." Stay in my room, my lord, please go back!"

His face collapsed in an instant, and Sima Xukong said bitterly: "Jingrong, don't you say that you are killing a donkey? We originally talked about helping and supporting each other, but why often when my aunt leaves, Did you change your attitude? I have something in me that you can use, so don't be so cynical."

"Aunt Chang is gone, what do you mean by being cynical here?" The grandson studied the receipts on the table without looking up, and said, "This time the performance is good, I guess Aunt Chang didn't notice our secret."

"That's right, I don't even look at it..." Sima Xukong was about to boast a few words, when he noticed what his eldest grandson Jingrong was looking at, he quickly looked at her in shock, and asked, "Jingrong, is your store encounter Are you in trouble?"

Impatiently raising his head, Changsun Jingrong said: "These are my business and have nothing to do with you, let's go back and rest soon!"

Sima Xukong glanced at his lower lip, and muttered: "She is really a colder woman! However, I have been eating with you for so long, and I am used to it. If it wasn't for the food prepared by Bihe, I might not be able to eat it. I'm used to it. How about this, give me some time to get used to it, let's eat first, okay?"

Originally, the eldest grandson was also hungry, and he wanted to go out just now to let Bihe prepare dinner.Now that this guy proposes, let him eat it again.

Changsun Jingrong called Bihe first, and after explaining clearly, he planned to let her go.But Sima Xukong left behind a bunch of tricky and troublesome requests, and Bihe could only agree to them first with a good temper.
Looking sideways at Sima Xukong, Changsun Jingrong said in a cold voice: "You are really greedy, it's good to have something to eat, and you still pick it up every day. If you really don't like it, you don't have to come in the future!"

"Oh, I didn't mean that. I just let Bihe prepare it according to your favorite taste." Sima Xukong felt that others had misunderstood him, and he felt a little uncomfortable. I'm in a bad mood, I want Bihe to prepare more of your favorite food."

After thinking about it carefully, Changsun Jingrong found that what this guy just explained seemed to be according to his own taste, and while he was moved, he also blamed himself a little bit more.

And Bihe was also moved by Sima Xukong's words, and immediately slapped his chest in a vow, and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, Miss's preferences and servants have long been in mind, and she will definitely serve her well!"

"You girl, why are you talking to him about this, go down and get ready first." Changsun Jingrong felt a little awkward, straightened his body, and explained in a flat voice.

Although Bi He was a careless girl, she also saw that her eldest grandson was uncomfortable, so she pursed her lips and smiled, then turned around and left the room.And her ambiguous smile made Changsun Jingrong feel even more embarrassed.

The guy sitting next to him got cheap and acted like a good boy. He touched his eldest grandson Jingrong's slightly flushed cheeks with his fingers, and asked knowingly: "Jingrong, don't be angry anymore. Your face is flushed with anger. At worst, I won't talk too much in the future." ,OK?"

"Shut up!" Changsun Jingrong really didn't want to continue wasting words with this man, so he said coldly, "If you still want to eat here, calm down now, or go back to your study!"

Putting his hand on his lips, Sima Xu hurriedly nodded silently, then sat at the small table next to the window, watching the scenery outside, secretly lost in thought.

Seeing that this guy finally calmed down, Changsun Jingrong let out a sigh of relief, looked at the receipt in his hand, and began to think about how to solve this annoying problem.And just when Changsun Jingrong was most defenseless, Sima Xukong's voice suddenly came.

"Jingrong, how sure are you of Akiba Fei?"

The movement was slightly concentrated, and Changsun Jingrong looked at Sima Xukong's back and asked, "What do you mean?"

Turning around slowly, looking at the eldest grandson Jingrong, Sima Xukong said solemnly: "Do you think that because you saved Qiu Yefei, she will be devoted to you? But have you ever thought about it? What is the girl doing?" Growing up in such an environment, will she really keep her promise to you? There is no guarantee that the people in the palace will not give her more bargaining chips, so will Akiba Fei not betray you?"

Squinting his eyes slightly, Changsun Jingrong asked, "Do you know what?"

Shrugging his shoulders helplessly, Sima Xukong said: "As long as you want to keep your matter a secret, I can't do it even if I try my best. I'm just worried about you now."

Changing his eyes, Changsun Jingrong turned his mind, and then slowly said: "Anyway, my goal has been achieved, even if Qiu Yefei wants to change someone to follow now, Grand Master Fang has been defeated, it doesn't make any difference to me. I said You have the time to discuss with me the utility value of a woman here, so you might as well think about arranging someone to take Fang Taishi's place."

Turning around again, Sima Xukong sighed and said: "This incident has dealt a great blow to the emperor. It is very likely that Fang Taishi's seat is so vacant, and the real power is distributed to the prime minister, Sikong, and the national teacher."

What Sima Xukong said made Changsun Jingrong suddenly realize that for a moment, he thought to himself, it was not that he didn't remember who was the new Grand Master candidate, but that the emperor planned to abolish the position of Grand Master.

Tapping his fingers on the table, Changsun Jingrong murmured: "It seems that the emperor doesn't want the family to be dominant anymore, and the plan really hasn't changed quickly."

"In this way, even though I failed to get in the manpower, other people's hopes have also come to nothing. It can be regarded as a tie with everyone, and there is nothing to lose." Sima Xukong thought open-mindedly. Paying attention to the eldest grandson Jingrong, "It's Jingrong you. You have been in a daze about those receipts since you came back. What happened?"

Sima Xukong's words jumped a little fast, Changsun Jingrong couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and said, "You started worrying about mine before you figured out your own affairs? I say you should save your time!"

"You are my wife, so of course your affairs should be the most important thing at all times." Sima Xukong stared closely at the eldest grandson Jingrong, and asked, "I heard that someone has troubled the bank recently, do you need me to come?" Help you solve it?"

His eyes darkened, and Changsun Jingrong asked sharply, "You send someone to investigate me!"

"No, no, I just heard a few colleagues discuss that the newly opened bank in the capital was going to be in trouble. I was curious, so I asked a few more questions before I heard the ins and outs of the matter. Jingrong, when you meet in the future Tell me when something happens, I am someone you can rely on, don't let me always know how you are from others, okay?"

Sima Xukong's almost pleading tone made Changsun Jingrong's heart soften again.But she was very resistant to this feeling, so she secretly ordered herself not to think wildly, and at the same time turned her gaze, and said in a cold voice: "Not many people know that I am the boss behind the bank, so if something happens, you can solve it Won't it attract other people's attention? Besides, I will handle such a simple matter by myself, so I won't let you worry about it."

"If it was really a trivial matter, you wouldn't have been silent for so long," Sima Xukong said with a frown. "If you can solve it with your identity disclosed, both you and I can handle it perfectly. But this is tricky." As long as you and I can’t be exposed, Zhang Liangmian’s ability alone can’t solve the problem. I think this is the real intention of these actors!”

With a chill in his mind, Changsun Jingrong asked eagerly: "You mean, someone knows that I am the boss behind the scenes?"

Slowly nodding his head, Sima Xukong said, "I'm afraid that's exactly the case. If it wasn't to lure you out, why would those banks make such a big move? Few of them are clean. If you make Zhang Liangmian anxious, He also made some moves, wouldn't it hurt both sides? Those old foxes would not do such risky things, so I think, someone must want to trouble you!"

His eyes fell on the table, Changsun Jingrong picked up a receipt, and murmured: "But there are not many people who know about this, and they are strict in their mouths. They will never leak me out. There are quite a few people in the capital who have killed me, but the Xue family is the only one with such a brain!"

"You mean, Xue Lingruo wants to pull your hand?" Sima Xukong pondered carefully, shook his head and said, "It's not like her, because it's not good for her, except for exposing your hidden assets. , How else can I hit you? This woman is very smart, if she does something, it will definitely be of great benefit to her before she makes a move. "
