I remember that not long ago, the emperor asked in private about the issue of establishing a crown prince.
At that time, Yin Jun dismissed the matter as it was His Majesty's family matter and there was no need to consult outsiders. The purpose of doing this was naturally not to be involved in the whirlpool of the secret war.
In some cases, neutrality is the safest way to protect yourself.
However, Su Liu felt a little uncomfortable.
Jiu Qing's words are extremely important. If he does not get their support, his son's position as the crown prince of the Eastern Palace will not be stable. Of course, the same goes for the formation of officials with heavy troops like Qi Yu and Qi Jing.
important.
But for now, we still need to deal with the courtiers who are stationed in the temple first.
Yin Jun thought for a moment and quickly understood the outline.
However, he neither nodded in agreement nor shook his head in refusal.
Instead, he asked: "I don't know, what levels of help did the empress just talk about cover? If it is limited to some insignificant rewards, I can refuse them on my sister's behalf without opening her mouth."
Listen carefully, Yin Jun has already made a very vague condition.
People don't look down on ordinary things at all.
Su Liu frowned slightly and asked, "I wonder, what level of benefits does Yin Tao want?"
Yin Jun became thick-skinned, and the lion opened his mouth and said: "The elixir is an iron certificate! As for its purpose, I believe that based on the empress's extraordinary wisdom, I should be able to figure it out."
What?
I want the Iron Book of Alchemy!!
Su Liufeng's eyes widened and she shook her head without thinking.
"With such a high-level reward, I really can't help, so I'd better choose something else!"
"Oh...okay!"
In fact, Yin Jun also knew very well that this was indeed an impossible and unreasonable request, but he still asked knowingly.
The purpose is to kill the Queen's spirit to prevent her sense of superiority from being so overwhelming.
"Empress, in your opinion, what should be the benefit?" Yin Jun asked without asking.
Su Liu murmured: "Let me think about it..."
If Yin Tao is not greedy for rewards, money and jewelry can be excluded. In this case, the only option left is canonization.
Canonization~~
She is already the imperial concubine. If she goes higher, wouldn't she become a first-class imperial concubine?
However, it seems that only the benefits of this level can impress her.
This matter, if done in the past, would not have been very feasible.
However, since Qi Jing's wife Fang Ruojiao set a precedent in the dynasty, it has become much easier to deal with it.
The main thing is that this kind of reward is only honorary and will not involve real power. Therefore, there is a high probability that His Majesty will not insist on not granting the time.
Will Yin Tao accept this condition?
Su Liu felt that it should, almost.
You must know that the Lady of the State is different from the Imperial Lady and Imperial Lady. She is the highest-level female honor in the country. Generally speaking, as long as she does not make a principled mistake, she will not be dismissed.
In other words, as long as you are granted the title of Lady of the State, it is equivalent to getting a political amulet. Even the Holy Emperor cannot act rashly without reason.
And aren't these benefits exactly what Yin Tao wants?
That's why Su Liu firmly believed that this condition would definitely move Yin Tao's heart.
Yin Jun chuckled and said: "Since the empress has shown such sincerity, how can I not appreciate the compliment? I will accept this deal!"
Hearing this, Su Liu suddenly smiled and said, "Master Yin is really a quick talker. Thank you very much for being here."
"Then, I'll just wait for the good news from your Majesty."
"Don't worry, this matter will be taken care of by me."
"..."
After leaving the palace, Yin Jun couldn't help but feel melancholy.
Although I repeatedly tried to avoid the whirlpool of Li Chu, for the sake of my sister, I was eventually drawn into it.
This deal would be of great benefit to my sister and even the entire Qi family, so it was worth changing my stance on it.
But what worried him was that there really was a rooster in the palace.
It is not difficult to see from today's exchange that the Queen has begun to attack the courtiers who do not support Li Hongyu, and she is just one of them.
The situation in the court is a bit worrying!
However, now is not the time to worry about these things. It is not too late to talk about other things after everything is arranged for your family.
Don’t forget, the pressure of the steam engine is still hanging over your head!
Just as he was about to go home, he suddenly remembered something he had almost forgotten.
Colleagues have all gone to express their condolences to Liang Shoufu today, so do you want to go there as well?
I feel like this has to go!
Otherwise, it would be rude.
…
The next morning.
Yin Jun suddenly rushed to his sister's house in high spirits and couldn't wait to show her the results of his work.
"What? You said that I...will be named a first-class national lady?"
"Yes, this is Empress Su's personal remonstrance! As for Your Majesty, he just sold her a favor."
Yin Taoqi said: "Theoretically speaking, only those women who have made great contributions to the country or the nation have the capital to be named the lady of the country. And I, firstly, do not have outstanding military achievements, and secondly, I do not have a mother who respects the world, how can I get this?
Waiting for qualifications? Although the emperor is hateful, he is not a stupid monarch. How could he be swayed by a sudden blow? If the emperor acts like this, he will definitely attract unanimous opposition from the civil servants! "
"My sister is a little worried."
Yin Jun shook his head in denial at first, and then explained: "As I said just now, what Your Majesty did was to go with the flow, not to go against everyone's opinions as you imagined. According to the statement given by the Queen, after you dedicated
After mastering the skills of steam engines, he can be regarded as a person who has made outstanding contributions to the country and nation. It is reasonable for the Holy Emperor to reward according to his merits and canonize according to the system! Even if some courtiers are dissatisfied, they cannot refute it in theory.
.”
oh……
So that’s the logic!
Putting aside the evil intentions of the emperor and empress, this result has indeed met my expectations.
Even, some exceeded it.
Just imagine, with the status of a lady of the country, I have the qualifications to move from behind the scenes to the front desk. Even if I openly meet officials, I no longer have to retreat.
More importantly, with the special blessing of this halo, the emperor would not dare or could no longer openly do evil things. Otherwise, he would suffer moral condemnation and be criticized by the people of the world.
However, Yin Tao flatly rejected such a good thing, which had all benefits and no harm, without even thinking about it.
Why?
Yin Jun looked at his sister with a puzzled expression.
