Chapter 28 The Emperor's Calculations
The smile on Rong Jing's face quickly turned serious, and she nodded solemnly. Bai Yuyue realized something, and quickly stood up and saluted the emperor, "The emperor and the prince want to discuss government affairs, I will take my leave first."
This move inevitably made the emperor take a second look. He was indeed a pretty person, and he was also smart.
Before Rong Jing could say anything, the emperor immediately waved his hand to stop Bai Yuyue who was about to go out, "Hey, why should the princess be so polite? Besides, is it possible that the third brother can still avoid you in matters that the third brother should have intervened in the first place?
"
Bai Yuyue frowned unnaturally when these words were spoken. Bai Yuyue frowned unnaturally. Feeling that Rong Jing's mood seemed to have changed, she hurriedly said, "The prince and my concubine are only married for one day. Normally, I can't enter the study without the prince's permission."
, The emperor just said that there is no need to avoid danger, but it really makes me panic."
Having said this, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that the beauty would harm the country. If Rong Jing had such thoughts about Bai Yuyue, he would really not dare to say anything to Rong Jing in the future.
"Well, I know. Of course, I don't mean to guard against you. It doesn't hurt that you listen to what happened today."
"yes."
With the emperor's permission, Bai Yuyue sat down, but her mood remained erratic.
In the Yangxin Hall, smoke rises from the animal-headed incense burner, forming a dragon pattern in the air. At first glance, it is not ambergris.
This made Bai Yuyue a little confused. As an emperor, he could use more expensive ambergris, so why did he change it...
"Third brother, our troops are insufficient now. What I mean is that I want to mobilize some of your troops."
As soon as these words came out, Rong Jing's eyes narrowed, as if mixed with some disbelief.
You know, unless there is a big mistake, no one can take the military power away from the hands of the regent, except the emperor, but...
Why is this?
"The emperor means, how much do you want?"
After hearing Rong Jing's concession, the emperor's tense heart relaxed and he said with a smile, "It doesn't take much, as long as one hundred thousand is enough."
One hundred thousand!
This number shocked Bai Yuyue again!
Bai Yuyue had a slight flash of doubt. After all, all the soldiers belonged to the emperor, and only the emperor had the tiger talisman in his hand. If he wanted these soldiers to go on an expedition, he did not need the consent of the regent at all.
Although Rong Jing also has half of the military talismans in his hands, the force is not large. It is only an army of 300,000 people. So he borrowed an army of 100,000 people. How serious a situation would it take to use 100,000 people?
Furthermore, once a war breaks out on the border, Rong Jing will never come and go at will, but should temporarily recruit troops and go out to fight immediately...
This wave of operations made Bai Yuyue depressed.
Your Majesty, is this...rising and descending secretly?
Bai Yuyue didn't ask the next words, but they were stuck in her mouth and she swallowed them hard.
In order to help the emperor ascend the throne, Rong Jing killed almost all the people who coveted the throne, stepped on the bloody corpses, and supported the emperor to ascend the throne.
If the emperor wanted to separate from Rong Jing at this time, then he should slowly strip away his troops, so that Rong Jing could exist in name only.
The woman gradually began to worry about Rong Jing. I am afraid that the emperor also felt that Rong Jing was so impressive.
"yes."
Rong Jing thought for a while, then immediately knelt down and faced the emperor.
The emperor was obviously relieved, his face was immediately covered with a smile, and he laughed out loud, "Thank you, third brother!"
When the two of them left the Yangxin Hall, Bai Yuyue saw no one around and asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, did someone around the Emperor say something? Isn't this obvious... rising and falling secretly?"
Rong Jing's face was serious and she didn't answer. She just reached out and took Bai Yuyue's little hand, forcing a smile.
In the royal family, this kind of intrigue exists all the time, not to mention that they have to deal with various emergencies. Anyone who fails to protect them will dislike them and want to pull Rong Jing down.
"No problem."
On the other side, in the Queen Mother's palace.
A graceful and luxurious woman, wearing a peony brocade, a gold hairpin on her head, her hair dyed with silky silver frost, said this with a kind face to the well-groomed Huo Kelian sitting on the side.
"The Queen Mother is indeed getting hotter and younger. When I look at her, I can see that the Queen Mother's spirit has changed."
Huo Kelian always had a sweet mouth and would lift the Queen Mother to the sky every time. This made the Queen Mother favor Huo Kelian and often recruit Huo Kelian into the palace.
Every woman doesn't want to be called young, and the same applies to the Queen Mother. She immediately looked at Huo Kelian with a smile on her face and said, "You have such a sweet mouth."
"No way, my daughter is telling the truth." Huo Kelian added fuel to the fire again.
While the two were talking, a nun walked in from the outside and saluted the Queen Mother, "Your Majesty, the Prince Regent and the Princess Regent have entered the palace to meet the Emperor."
"oh?"
The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows, with an intriguing look in her eyes.
This is the first time I heard that Rong Jing would have a woman by his side. Normally, he would like to avoid women, but now he has changed his temper?
"This is quite new." The Queen Mother couldn't help but sigh, but Huo Kelian seized the opportunity and arrived immediately, "Your Majesty, the Princess Regent is said to be stunningly beautiful. I can't say for sure. She really suits the prince's appetite. Isn't she going to go there soon?
Flower viewing? Why don’t the queen mother invite the prince to come with her so that she can take a look at the princess? "
Huo Kelian knew the Queen Mother's thoughts well. After all, she was the emperor's biological mother. She was somewhat grateful to this prince. The reason why the Regent helped the Emperor was because a Queen Mother had raised the Regent for two years.
He was very considerate of the regent, and wanted to keep Rong Jing even during her pregnancy. However, the late emperor handed over the regent to his former noble concubine.
After thinking for a while, the Queen Mother raised the corners of her mouth slightly and nodded, "That's right. Zhuyue, let someone pass the message on."
"yes."
The old nanny Zhuyue who followed the Queen Mother had served Rong Jing since she was a child, so Rong Jing was very courteous to her.
"Greetings to the Prince Regent and Princess Regent."
Halfway through, she realized that the person coming was Zhuyue. Rong Jing was slightly startled and nodded, "Auntie, please get up."
With a smile on Zhuyue's face, her peripheral vision glanced at Bai Yuyue beside her. The more she looked at it, the more pleasing it became to her eyes, and she became even happier, "The Queen Mother and Miss Huo invited the Prince Regent and Princess to enjoy the flowers in the garden."
Huo Kelian?
The corners of Bai Yuyue's mouth raised slightly. Sure enough, this woman was restless.
And after yesterday, no matter how stupid Rong Jing was, she could tell that Bai Yuyue probably had some opinions on Huo Kelian.
However, Huo Kelian is an orphan. If he cannot take care of her, he will be a disgrace to General Huo's general spirit.
"this……"
"Okay, husband, I also want to see how beautiful the flowers in the Imperial Garden are."
