Scholar Yin said calmly: "Your Majesty may not know this, but General Zhou has lost all his limbs. He often cries to Your Majesty in the palace and wants to retire and return to his hometown. Your Majesty also feels that he is no longer a threat."
He added more water to Ming Lanruo, like a qualified counselor: "In addition, the Zhou family is now the top military general in the court, and your majesty still relies on them to frighten the Northern Mongolians. Your majesty probably...this time it is your Majesty."
Po, let it go for a week and then come out."
Ming Lanruo took a deep breath and said coldly with disgust: "He is really a smart man."
Although he doesn't want to admit it, Emperor Ming is indeed very good at playing with checks and balances, and he can bend and stretch.
I don’t know how many years it took Cang Qiao and how much thought he spent to get Emperor Ming to trust him to such an extent.
Scholar Yin said calmly: "If you are not a smart man, how can you win the trust of the late emperor and treat him as the most trusted person? Then he suddenly launched a coup and was left alone and helpless, and his whole family was silenced?"
He smiled slightly and said mockingly: "The only one who is truly stupid is the cowardly and useless late emperor, who deserves to be exterminated."
Seeing this, Ming Lanruo sighed secretly and changed the subject: "The governor did not know before Emperor Ming released Zhou Hou."
Scholar Yin raised his slender red phoenix eyes to look at her and nodded: "That's right, the governor didn't know that he did something about Zhou Hou."
Ming Lanruo narrowed her clear and cold eyes, leaned back on the chair, and tapped the table with her fingertips: "There will be a banquet next week..."
That woman will definitely go by herself and give herself a show of strength on the spot, right?
After that week, she became a mortal enemy of herself, but now she is still her mother-in-law in name only, so she can manipulate her in a legitimate way!
"Little lady, do you want to stay here tonight, or give me the pill to suppress the smell of roses on your body." Scholar Yin suddenly spoke leisurely.
Ming Lanruo thought about it and decided to comply with his request. After all, he was so angry with her and Xiao Xi today.
Although his voice was very calm at the moment, there was a cold and dark fire in the eyes that looked at her, which made her skin crawl.
She immediately took a small bottle from her pocket and pushed it to him: "Here."
Scholar Yin raised his hand to hold the medicine bottle, put his hand on the back of her hand, and smiled sadly: "Young lady has some backbone, but not much."
Ming Lanruo's ears are a little hot. If she has the guts to not give him the pills, he will eat her bones tonight, right?
She coughed obediently and changed the subject: "It's not that I don't want to give it to you. The taste of your rose mint-flavored balls will dissipate on its own. On the contrary, eating too many of these taste-depressing things is bad for the stomach.
"
She didn't lie.
Scholar Yin smiled and said, "Really? I met the governor a few days later and the young lady told him personally that he misses the young lady very much."
Ming Lanruo smiled wildly at his gentle smile.
...
Sure enough, three days later, Ming Lanruo received a decree from the Queen, announcing that she would enter the palace to help prepare for the Double Ninth Festival banquet.
Ming Lanruo directly complained that he was ill and did not go there. He did not even see the female official who had chosen the imperial concubine. The female official became very angry in Concubine Ming's mansion and scolded Ming Lanruo for disrespecting her mother-in-law.
Ming Lanruo ignored her and prepared for the banquet. She was afraid that she would be asked to go to the palace to learn from it. If she did not do well, Empress Zhou would reprimand and punish her "daughter-in-law".
But after the female official left angrily, Ming Lanruo asked Chunming to ask people to keep an eye on where she went.
Five or six days later, this time, Emperor Ming issued an imperial edict, announcing that she and King Qin would enter the palace to attend the Double Ninth Festival banquet.
The queen also thoughtfully gave her a new princess dress to show how much she values Ming Lanruo as her daughter-in-law.
To put it simply - if Minglan is not dead, she must go.
She simply didn't waste any time and directly accepted the clothes sent by the Queen's female officer along with Emperor Ming's imperial edict.
He and his father-in-law sent the proud female officer out to wait, and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid there is something wrong with this dress. Please take a good look at it, and don't let the queen find out."
Ming Lanruo glanced at the dress: "Is the blue bird pattern on it actually a phoenix totem that violates taboos? Or does the dress belong to some noble person and violates His Majesty's taboo? Or maybe there is something wrong with the stitching of the dress, and it will fall apart in public if you move it.
Are you exposing your body? Or what kind of medicine is soaked in my clothes that will cause my skin to rip apart?"
He father-in-law: "...You know so much, you can write a storybook."
Ming Lanruo: "Haha..."
In her previous life, she was also an adulterous concubine who indulged in the harem's previous dynasties. What doesn't she understand about this little trick of palace fighting?
What is really fierce and terrifying is the struggle of the previous dynasty.
"Now that you know, I don't think Chitose is too worried." He and the father-in-law breathed a sigh of relief. This chapter has been completed!
