I have to say that those ministers in the DPRK are really disgusting.
Whether it is a big deal or a small matter, such an incident will not ruin the palace banquet, but it can irritate people. Later, it can be used as an excuse to prevent the emperor from carrying out the Six-Ministry Reform Plan.
"Is the news reliable?" Ji Yunkai found that he was not surprised at all when he heard the news. He even felt that it had finally come.
To be honest, this period of time was so peaceful that it scared her.
She didn't think that those adults would really believe her, let her go as the "culprit", and not do anything to her.
She does have a backer behind her, but when people die, they die, and no matter how many backers they have, it is useless. And...
Ji Yunkai never believed that her "backers" would take crazy revenge on those who killed her, regardless of their own interests, for the sake of her death.
It's not that Ji Yunkai is pessimistic, but that the living are more important than the dead.
It was impossible for Feng Qi to drag the entire Feng family into trouble for her. Even if he had no feelings for the Feng family, the Feng family would not be willing even if he wanted to.
Her master would not drag the entire Tianyi Valley into trouble because of her. Tianyi Valley also has his family.
Similarly, Xiao Jiuan would not devote all Yanbei's efforts to avenge her for her sake.
Of course, she doesn't want this either.
Everyone is already dead, so why kill more people?
Xiao Shaorong did not directly answer Ji Yunkai's words, but said: "There is a girl from a branch of the Xiao family who is Princess Xianjun." And coincidentally, it was Princess Xianjun who was responsible for purchasing flowers, plants and fruits.
"I remember that Princess Xianjun is from the Zhang family. If I remember correctly, the Zhang family should be leaning towards the emperor." The royalists plotted against the emperor, and this incident caused a scene...
"A girl from the Zhang family married into the Wang family. The thoughts of the Wang family are unpredictable." The four aristocratic families of Feng, Qi and Xiao Wang are all married to each other, but they are not close.
The four major families are extremely defensive. Generally, if a direct branch of this generation marries with the four major families, they will not allow the direct branch to marry another direct branch of this family for three generations.
Of course, we don't care about the side branch. The side branch basically cannot interfere in family affairs, and whether there is a marriage or not does not play a decisive role.
However, what the Wang family has done in the past few decades has made people have to be on guard.
Xiao Shaorong's aunt is a daughter of the Wang family, and the current head wife of the Feng family is also a girl of the Wang family. Not long ago, the Wang family was seeking the position of the wife of the young master of the Qi family; they even wanted Feng Ning to marry a girl from the Wang family.
In addition to the direct branch, most of the girls from the Wang family's side branches also married the side branches of Feng, Qi and Xiao's three families, while the young masters of the Wang family married women from powerful families.
Xiao Shaorong didn't believe it if the Wang family had no ambitions.
"Isn't it just for power? The Wang family is so powerful that they want that position. I heard that the eldest daughter of the Wang family is already sixteen this year and is not married yet?" Since Feng Qi returned to the capital, Ji Yunkai
Start paying attention to the affairs of the four major families.
It has to be said that the four major families have flourished for hundreds of years, and there are a lot of things going on in them, and their relationships are extremely complicated.
"That one... has been hidden deeply by the Wang family. I heard that Feng Ning from the Feng family likes her, but it's a pity that the Wang family has no intention of marrying their eldest daughter to her." Xiao Shaorong knew that Ji Yunkai's question about this matter was definitely not without purpose.
.
"The Wang family's plans are not small." Ji Yunkai vaguely guessed that this matter might not be the handiwork of those adults. It might be that the Wang family took advantage of the situation and disturbed the situation in order to benefit from it.
Even if it is the work of those adults, the Wang family must know it.
"That person... the one pictured should be Feng Wei. I received a piece of news some time ago. I wonder if it's fake?" When Ji Yunkai said this, Xiao Shaorong also guessed a thing or two.
Regardless of whether this matter was the work of the Wang family, the Wang family was definitely involved.
"What news?" Ji Yunkai raised his head and asked.
"About Feng Pei." Xiao Shaorong did not sell it, and said directly: "There are rumors that after a hundred years of accumulation, the Phoenix Guards are no longer what they used to be. The Queen of Tianqi holds the Phoenix Guards and can compete with the emperor."
"So?" Ji Yunkai suddenly realized that she had taken a hot potato?
However, now that this hot potato is in Xiao Jiuan's hands, this gives her some peace of mind.
"The battle for the throne of Apocalypse will be more terrifying and complicated than imagined." The Feng Guard was originally set up by the founding queen to protect the prince and queen, but she didn't want it to become like this now.
Sure enough, no matter how good the mechanism is, problems will occur if the wrong people use it.
"Who the Queen is will ultimately depend on the Emperor's nod. Do you think...did the Emperor release this news?" At the moment when the Emperor decided to choose a concubine and establish a queen, Ji Yunkai had to say something like this.
think.
Today, the Holy Emperor is not a puppet. No matter how powerful the ministers are, they cannot force the Emperor to appoint someone as his queen.
Finally, the person who can sit on the throne must be someone who can please the emperor. To please the emperor, the queen and her family must be used by the emperor and be used by the emperor.
"It's hard to say. The Wang family has been moving closer to the royal family over the years, and his in-laws, the Feng family, have a good relationship with the royal family. But as soon as Feng Qi came back, the Wang family's plan came to nothing." Xiao Shaorong knew that Ji Yun was happy and had a plan.
Xiao Shaorong did not hesitate to tell Ji Yunkai about the matter.
If you know more, you won't wander around or make mistakes.
"Regardless of whether the Wang family is involved or not, you have to find a way to reveal the flowers and fruits to the emperor. You can't let the Wang family step on us to get the throne." The Wang family has no other ideas in the end, otherwise she will let the Wang family know.
.
"There are a huge number of flowers, melons and fruits for the palace banquet, and it's winter now, so we can't prepare them all at once." This matter is uncertain in the end, and the Wang family really came out to "share your worries."
"I will figure out a solution for these things. You just need to let the emperor know that something happened." As for whether the emperor can suspect the Wang family?
To be honest, Ji Yunkai couldn't guarantee it. After all, the Wang family had been loyal to the emperor over the years, and even if the emperor doubted her, he would not necessarily doubt the Wang family.
"Okay." Xiao Shaorong didn't ask any more questions and stood up to leave, but was stopped by Ji Yunkai: "By the way, is there any news about the prince?"
Ji Yunkai believed that Xiao Jiu'an would not leave her alone in the capital and would definitely come back, but she could not guarantee that Xiao Jiu'an would come back before the Lantern Festival.
Seeing Xiao Shaorong, Ji Yunkai couldn't help but ask.
Deep down, she was still worried.
"Your Majesty?" Xiao Shaorong was startled. Thinking of what the secret guard had hinted at him, he paused, shook his head and said, "No. The war in Yanbei has just ended. I'm afraid Your Majesty will be busy for a while."
The secret guard said that the prince left Yanbei three days ago and rushed all the way to Yufeng Mountain. But...
The prince doesn't want the princess to know about this.
"I understand." Ji Yunkai responded lightly and tried his best to smile to hide the disappointment in his heart.
Since the last six-character letter, there has been no news from Xiao Jiuan... (To be continued)
