The charming empress is too good at fishing, and the ruthless emperor has fallen

"Shu'er, I just found out today that the surprises you can give me are not just in bed." Lu Zan pinched Jing Shu's chin and kissed her soft lips forcefully.

"What did the emperor say, did you use Concubine as the title of the book?" Jing Shu pretended to be angry and pushed him, but he tightened his waist even harder.

"Shu'er, do you miss me? It's been so many days." Lu Zan's big palm slid down from her waist to her plump and soft buttocks, and rubbed it forcefully suggestively.

"Your Majesty, it's better to deal with the affairs of the previous court first." Jing Shu politely took away his hand that wanted to cause trouble, and smiled at him with bright eyes, "I am waiting for the Emperor in Yicui Palace."

"So good." Lu Zan kissed her little mouth again lovingly.

Suddenly he frowned again and asked, "How do you know why I am upset?"

"Of course I heard what others said. I can't be the concubine who predicts the future, right?" Jing Shu said.

"Who is it?" Lu Zan didn't show it on his face, but he was a little unhappy in his heart.

The harem must not interfere with politics. This sentence applies to everyone, not just concubines.

"It's Eunuch Cui from the Ministry of Internal Affairs." Jing Shu had no intention of hiding it at all, and even deliberately added jealousy at this time, "Your Majesty, you don't know that on the way here, I met Cui Liangdi and punished Eunuch Cui to kneel in the snow. Alas, , Eunuch Cui is so pitiful, a good noble son, but he did something that made his family angry, so he was treated so cruelly by the family and sent to the palace to be an eunuch!

"Then Cui Liangdi also scolded him as a 'castrated dog' one after another.

"But my concubine clearly remembers that Eunuch Cui is not her biological brother? She is so cruel, and even said that she wanted Eunuch Cui to kneel there, and she was not allowed to get up unless she told Eunuch Cui. She didn't want Eunuch Cui's knees to freeze and become a cripple. Really? It’s really unbearable.

"I couldn't stand it anymore and saved Eunuch Cui. Eunuch Cui should be grateful to me, so he told me what happened in the previous dynasty. He was just kindly reminding me. He didn't have bad intentions. The emperor can You can’t punish him for this.”

Jing Shu said, tugging on Lu Zan's sleeves and coquettishly asking him to promise not to cause trouble to Cui Huazhang.

Lu Zan was thoughtful.

"Are you sure that Cui Huazhang is innocent?" He looked at Jing Shu.

"Of course, I can tell by one look at Eunuch Cui's face that he is not a treacherous or evil person. It is definitely not him who is at fault, but the Cui family." Jing Shu said in a rather determined tone.

"Facial appearance? When will my beloved concubine look at this again?" Lu Zan seemed to be amused by her words and raised his eyebrows.

"Humph, I have a lot of concubines! It's just that the emperor doesn't know about it!" Jing Shu looked unconvinced and tugged on his sleeve again, "Your Majesty, you haven't promised that I won't embarrass Eunuch Cui! If you punished me for what I said, then if things are like this in the future, who else, whether it is Eunuch Cui or anyone else, would dare to say such kind words to me?"

"Okay, I understand. I don't punish him, but I reward him specially. Are you satisfied now?" Lu Zan was so entangled by her that she had no choice but to agree.

"Your Majesty is so kind!" Jing Shu didn't hesitate at all and kissed him on the face.

Lu Zan couldn't help laughing.

After a while, he suddenly asked again: "Since you know what happened in the previous dynasty, you should also know that Prime Minister Xie objected to my tax reduction for next year on the grounds that the treasury was empty. But this kind of thing is not something you can inspire people with. It can be solved with words, Shu'er, do you have any ideas to solve this problem of mine?"

"Lack of money? It's easy."

Jing Shu said in a leisurely tone, "Has your Majesty ever heard of the saying among the people that three years to clear the magistrate's office costs one hundred thousand snowflakes of silver? However, an ordinary person's basic living expenses for a year are probably less than two taels of silver, and the border has not been invaded for more than ten years. The late emperor was also a diligent and wise king in governing the country. After the emperor ascended the throne, the treasury should be full, but Prime Minister Xie said that the treasury was empty. Who knows whose pocket the money in the treasury went into.

"In the past, Yan Chongyuan, a eunuch, could make ten thousand taels of silver a year when he became the general manager of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. This is only what can be found in the account books. I'm afraid there are more that can't be found. How much of this is due to his filial piety. Thank you to the imperial concubine? This is true in the palace, let alone those officials outside the palace?

"The richest but corrupt official in the world can give 800,000 taels of silver to the Minister of Household Affairs just by thanking the Prime Minister. Many of them must be filial piety money from corrupt officials. Your Majesty will arrest a few corrupt officials in the court at will. , won’t the treasury be replenished? Even if it is still insufficient, Prime Minister Xie will not dare to stop it anymore.”

Lu Zan's eyes were as bright as stars after hearing what she said.

Catching a few corrupt officials from Xie Xiang's faction will not only confiscate their homes and use the money to provide disaster relief, but also suppress and intimidate Xie Xiang's faction, killing two birds with one stone.

He took one of Jing Shu's little hands, his expression full of admiration: "I really underestimate Shu'er, she actually has the talent to govern the country."

"Your Majesty, please don't accuse me unjustly! A woman is virtuous if she has no talent. If your Majesty's words get out, those courtiers will probably eat my concubine!" When Jing Shu heard what he said, she immediately said angrily.

"Nonsense! You can only be eaten by me!" Lu Zan scolded her with a frown.

"Your Majesty, it's true! You know that I didn't mean that!" Jing Shu didn't expect that he would care about such words, so she couldn't help but blush and glared at him speechlessly.

"Does Shu'er want to be eaten by me? Huh?" Lu Zan had a bad idea. As he spoke, he pulled her into his arms again, unbuttoned her chest with his well-joined hands, and pulled her from her chest. He reached into the lapel of his clothes, grabbed the soft ball and kneaded it gently.

The two of them hadn't had sex for a few days, and their bodies were in a state of panic.

Jing Shu soon felt so comfortable that a broken hum escaped from her lips and teeth, and she allowed him to start messing around in the warm palace.

Jing Shu blushed with embarrassment, while Lu Zan chuckled and carried her to the inner room.

At noon, the imperial study called for water.

As the news spread, several palaces were so jealous that they smashed things, especially the Changchun Palace!

"Hu Meizi! Send a message to your father now! Tell him to file a memorial tomorrow! Just say that this Yuan Jieyu is so charming that she seduces the Lord and drags the Holy Emperor into promiscuity all day long. She has no shame! If this continues! The Emperor will be seduced by her and become a coward. Go! Go quickly!" Cui Liangdi pointed at the palace maid Fen Tao and shouted sharply.

"Yes, I obey the order!" Although Fentao disagreed in her heart, she had no choice but to obey her words.

the other side.

Jingshu returned to Yicui Palace from the Imperial Study Room, rested for half a day, woke up during dinner, squinted her still charming eyes, curled her red lips, and called Xiu Dong to her eyes: "Go to Taifu's Mansion Write a letter and say that your Majesty is planning to arrest a few corrupt officials of the Xie Xiang faction in the near future, so that the Grand Tutor should pay more attention to them."

After saying that, Jingshu stood up.

However, she was already combing her hair, but she saw Xiudong still staying there and looking at her, as if waiting for her to say something else.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else?" Jing Shu couldn't help but look at her.

"Your Majesty, do you only write to the Tutor's Mansion?" Xiu Dong asked with confusion in his eyes.

"What else?" Jing Shu was also confused by her words.

"Empress, in another half month, the Queen Mother will return to the palace. At that time, the prince will accompany her back." Xiu Dong could only say again.

"Prince? Which prince?" Jing Shu looked confused.

The next moment, her eyes met Xiudong's astonished face, and then she heard Xiudong say in his heart: "Sister, what's wrong? Prince? Who else could it be? Of course it's our master, His Highness Prince Xian.

"The King Xian is the younger brother of the late emperor, who leads the Supervision Department. My sister and I are both secret guards of the Supervision Department, and my sister is the highest-ranking Grade A secret guard among them. I am an orphan that my sister picked up on the street. She was watched by her elder sister and grew up. Later, she followed the prince's arrangement and entered the Taifu's Mansion as a spy with her sister. Later, the daughter of the Taifu's Mansion fled the capital, and her sister took over the identity of the Taifu's Mansion's daughter and entered the palace to become the beloved concubine. .

"Now that the prince is going back to Beijing, shouldn't it be time for my sister to report to him all her affairs since she married into the East Palace? Especially now, it's time to return to her usual way of delivering news to the prince...

"Why is it that my sister seems to have lost her memory and doesn't even remember the prince?"

After hearing this, Jing Shu was so shocked that she almost tore her hair off!

After working on it for a long time, it turns out that she actually has a dual identity?

Jing Shu suddenly felt dizzy and tried to figure out her identity... So, she was not only a spy of the Taifu Mansion, but also a spy placed in the Taifu Mansion by the Xian Wang?

No, now she is the mastermind of both the Taifu Mansion and the Xian Wang?

This Xiudong is usually silent and keeps his thoughts very deep.

If she hadn't brought it up today, Jing Shu would have never heard anything from her. Should we say that she is worthy of being a secret guard of the Supervision Department?

As for the Supervision Department, Jing Shu also had some impressions and seemed to have heard someone mention it.

This was founded by the late emperor, and its responsibilities were similar to that of the Jinyiwei. It was a power organization specially used to monitor officials. The late emperor gave it to the wise king.

It's just that the wise king was squeezed out by Xie Xiang and went to his fiefdom in Jinling a few years ago. Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, it's the New Year, and the Queen Mother is in Hanshan Temple for repairs. She has to return to the palace in time for Laba, so he can finally There's a reason to come back.

However, Jingshu was not sure for a moment whether the wise king wanted her to be a slave to him, whether he was loyal to the king or disloyal.

The wise king is still her brother-in-law in name only!

When the time comes, won't she still want to see her nominal sister? I don’t know if this sister knows her identity.

Jingshu was full of questions.

"Xiudong, to tell you the truth, I was injured a few months ago. I had a high fever at night and almost died. After that, I couldn't remember many things. I can remember you, remember We used to sell our bodies on the street to bury our father, and then we were picked up by Mr. Wei from Tai Tu's Mansion, but we can't remember who the prince you are talking about... I only have a vague memory, but I don't know very well. Can you tell me about the prince's affairs? Can't you tell me carefully? Maybe I can remember it." At this time, Jing Shu could only say this.

"So that's it." Xiu Dong heard her words and breathed a sigh of relief. Then he told Jing Shu in detail that she and Jing Shu were both secret guards of the Supervision Department, and who the prince was.

The more Jing Shu listened, the more her brows furrowed.

According to Xiudong's words, since he is a first-class secret guard of the Inspection Department, he should be very skilled and have a very strong basic physical fitness.

But the problem was that as soon as she walked through it, her body was extremely fragile and powerless. It was only after she insisted on practicing Tai Chi that her body bones became better.

Another point is, if the original person is really the highest-ranking and most powerful Class A secret guard of the Supervision Department, why did he die so easily?

As soon as Jingshu walked in, she was already on the sedan chair.

If the original body had not died, she would not have been able to wear this body.

At this time, I heard Xiu Dong continue to say with a serious expression, "Mother, we sold our bodies on the street to bury our father. It was all fake, and the purpose was to enter the Taifu's mansion.

"The reason why Mr. Wei will take us back is because he and our prince made a plan. Mr. Wei is actually a member of the prince. The prince's plan is like this. Mr. Wei will take us to the Taifu Mansion. After that, Wei The young master abducted the daughter of the Taifu Palace. At this time, the East Palace had decided that the daughter of the Taifu Palace would be the concubine of the East Palace. The Taifu Palace had no choice but to ask the empress to take her place and marry into the East Palace.

"From now on, the empress will work hard to become a beloved concubine, charm the Holy Emperor, and cooperate with the prince internally and externally. When the time comes, she will help the prince achieve his great achievements."

Therefore, the wise king had a disloyal heart and wanted to kill Lu Zan and replace him as emperor.

Jing Shu really wanted to fall over.

There were only three words in her mind at this time.

Dead!

She often comes to the imperial study room, so she is very aware of the current situation in the court.

Although part of the power in the court was controlled by Xie Xiang, Lu Zan had been consolidating power since he ascended the throne, and was quite effective.

Even if the wise king holds the Supervision Department, he has been away from the capital for many years. Even if he comes back now, he still has to start the business from scratch. What's more, Lu Zan is not a dim emperor. He is diligent and strategic, his mind is as deep as the sea, and he will He values ​​his throne and country more than anyone else, so how could he fall into her beauty trap and be seized from power?

Jing Shu was very sure just by looking at Lu Zan's attitude towards Concubine Xie and other concubines in the harem.

If she makes any move that is harmful to his country and the country, Lu Zan will be the first to kill her and will never keep her again!

At this time, Jingshu cursed in her heart!

These two idiots, Grand Tutor Jing and King Xian, really have no idea at all!

One wanted her to say good things in front of Lu Zan so that he could join the cabinet.

The other one is even more outrageous. He actually wants to usurp the throne?

What a mess!

"I have remembered something." Jingshu gnashed her teeth and cursed in her heart for a while, but she didn't show it on her face. She looked like she was contemplating, and then she told Xiu Dong, "In that case, you will tell the news Send another copy to the prince, and if there is a chance to meet the prince after he returns to Beijing, I will personally explain everything to him."

"Yes, I obey your order." Xiudong finally withdrew after hearing her instructions.

Jing Shu sat in front of the bronze mirror, looking at the charming beauty in the mirror, and she felt like she was having a lawsuit on her forehead.

What should she do next?
