The water vapor from the Nanhuai River and Fuxian Sea made the moon like a moon in the sky seem to pass through the water vapor, making the scattered moonlight moist.
It also adds a soft glow to the beauty's complexion, making her look like a fairy in a dream.
"Take it one step at a time." Tang Wanrong heard the worry in Qin Shou'an's words and comforted: "It can also be seen that the Queen Mother today pays more attention to strategy and games. It is extremely unlikely that she will directly issue orders to force things to happen. .”
Qin Shou'an nodded. Most rulers pursue stability and maintain the status quo. Unless they have no choice, they will not choose to tear apart the current stable situation.
Back then, if the Queen Mother had not dealt with the auxiliary ministers with thunderous means, she would have been gradually marginalized and lost her right to speak and influence. But now, even if the Langya Palace is allowed to develop, it will have little impact on the situation in the court.
Compared to the possible turmoil caused by forcibly dismantling the Langya Palace, the Queen Mother would probably prefer to use the method of peeling cocoons and pulling out silk to slowly figure it out.
"What needs to be dealt with now is that there may be a marriage proposal in the palace." Tang Wanrong has already given some thought to this issue. "The Queen Mother may consider two candidates: Fang Zhimei, or the two sisters Hei Ji and Bai Ji."
"What!" Qin Shou'an pressed his hand on the lifelike lion head wood carving on the fence, and was so frightened that he almost climbed over the railing and fell.
He felt that the possibility of Fang Zhimei was very low, but considering the beauty and figure of Yiren's sister and the emotional basis of their childhood sweethearts, it was still acceptable.
What happened to Hei Ji and Bai Ji?
Qin Shou'an really wanted to play with them and thought they were interesting, but the choice of princess was not a fun and interesting issue.
Tang Wanrong has set an example for Princess Langya. Qin Shouan has no covetousness or greed for Tang Wanrong, but he also feels that it would be most suitable for his princess to be a capable and shrewd woman like Tang Wanrong.
Hei Ji and Bai Ji are very accomplished at fooling Tang Wanrong, but this does not mean that they have the ability to replace Tang Wanrong.
Whether it was managing the Langya Palace, running the businesses under his name, or maintaining connections throughout Xinqin and overseas, no one could be better than Tang Wanrong.
Even if Qin Shou'an marries a truly virtuous wife, she should be assisting Tang Wanrong instead of causing trouble for Tang Wanrong for a long, long time.
Seeing Qin Shou'an's expression, Tang Wanrong couldn't help but smile. He rarely showed such true feelings and panic moments in front of her. Looking at his helpless presence, Tang Wanrong couldn't help but feel a little happy.
This is what young people should do, less of the feeling of wearing a mask, more real and reassuring.
"Compared with Jiuzhou Mansion, the Queen Mother obviously trusts Riyue Mountain more. Because Hei Ji and Bai Ji are twins, the two sisters have basically eaten, lived, slept and traveled together since they were young. They are not willing to marry separately. The Queen Mother It is not impossible to follow the ancient system and marry them to you together."
Tang Wanrong knew the Queen Mother very well. She was definitely not the kind of person who was stuck in the old ways and didn't know how to adapt.
What's more, for a person in this position, she prefers to create rules rather than follow them.
Thinking about it carefully, Tang Wanrong is indeed more willing to accept Qin Shou'an marrying these two sisters. She has done so many things with them, and her future relationship will be simpler and more relaxed.
If it is Fang Zhimei, her natal family is the prime minister's house, and he is a smart and shrewd person.
It will really take more effort to deal with such a "daughter-in-law" who is full of scheming skills and background. In the future, the Langya Palace will probably be the same as other mansions, full of intrigues between women.
As for "Shou'an should marry her", even if we don't mention it, how can it possibly come true? Even if Tang Wanrong gave up her reserve and shame, she still wouldn't be able to do this.
"No...even though as a prince, I often have no control over marriages, I don't want to follow the palace's arrangements completely." Qin Shou'an shook his head firmly and looked at Tang Wanrong's face, which had a faint blush for no apparent reason. , I just feel delicate and charming.
They were talking about his marriage, why did she look like this? Qin Shouan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed because he probably thought of "Shou'an should marry him" again.
When she thought about this, she must have found it absurd and unacceptable like him... In fact, Qin Shou'an felt that if it weren't for him, any man in the world who could marry Tang Wanrong would be blessed with the kind of smoke rising from the ancestral grave to the ninth heaven. .
"Well... the Queen Mother will probably think that it would be great if you can accept Hei Ji and Bai Ji, but if you refuse, she will still have another layer of tricks waiting for you."
Tang Wanrong calmed down her mixed emotions when it came to the Queen Mother's methods. At this time, she was the only one around him who could give him advice and analyze it thoroughly.
"What means?"
"You can't accept Hei Ji and Bai Ji, so what if the Queen Mother proposes Fang Zhimei at this time? You may subconsciously feel that it is better to accept Miss Fang San... Maybe this is her real marriage partner. .”
Tang Wanrong had been looking down at the lights of the Prime Minister's Mansion earlier, and she had some premonitions.
Qin Shou'an couldn't help but fell silent. This old woman was really cunning and cunning. Fortunately, she had Tang Wanrong beside her to remind her.
"Marrying Fang Zhimei to you will greatly increase the power and influence of both Langya Palace and the Prime Minister's Palace. At the same time, it will go against the late emperor's restrictions on Jiuzhou Palace and Langya Palace."
Qin Shou'an frowned slightly, "If you want to take it away, you must give it to it first?"
"Yes. Whether it is the Prime Minister's Mansion or the Langya Prince's Mansion, after a marriage, they will inevitably find that their excessive power will easily arouse suspicion in the palace, so they can only hand over part of their power and reduce their positions." Tang Wanrong sighed softly:
"If there is only an undercurrent surging in the court instead of a bloody storm, then it is a well-informed game, and all parties compromise with each other after weighing the pros and cons."
Qin Shou'an was a little irritated. He originally just wanted to inherit his father's position and go out to catch heroines and fairies in the rivers and lakes.
This old lady always comes to him for trouble... If she still goes to Huiyinshang Yinchi in the future, and if she still has a chance to sneak in, he will definitely mess with her secretly.
"If you don't want to fall into this dilemma, there is no way to delay the attack..."
After Tang Wanrong finished speaking, she bit her lips tightly. Her eyes were blurred as if they were torn into pieces of smoke. She passed over him and leaned against the exquisitely carved railing. Her white and gentle palms stretched out from her long sleeves, tightly Hold together.
"What kind of delaying strategy?" This was the first time that Qin Shou'an and Tang Wanrong had truly discussed important matters in a joint manner.
Suddenly, he realized that his father's letter really made sense. If he didn't have Tang Wanrong's help, at least he would be very passive when dealing with that old lady, the Queen Mother.
"You refuse to marry with Riyue Mountain, but you don't want to fall into the trap with the Prime Minister's Mansion. You must come up with a sufficient reason to show that you really cannot accept the Queen Mother's proposed marriage. For example... the old prince's widow Life……"
After speaking, Tang Wanrong turned around, raised her head slightly, and her hair fell down on her shoulders, leaving Qin Shou'an with a back that seemed to be blending into the night and hiding: "Of course... this is just a delaying tactic, used to prevaricate the Queen Mother. Your excuse."
"Thank you Aunt Tang." Qin Shou'an was overjoyed. He really had never thought of doing this. "If the Queen Mother proposes marriage, I will give her the letter?"
Because it was his father's death, even the Queen Mother could not force Qin Shou'an to accept her marriage proposal immediately, and she would definitely be able to buy a buffer of time.
Many times when we encounter a problem, we don’t necessarily have to solve it immediately. We often just “put it off”, and maybe by then the problem will no longer be a problem.
Everybody loves the drag trick.
"In short, we don't need to think too much about the Queen Mother's reward. The key is to block her next step." Tang Wanrong walked forward a few steps stiffly and sat down on the couch in the corridor.
"What's more beneficial to us is that... the Queen Mother seems to have another health problem. She will rest in Ji Jingzhao Jian'an for a while recently, and she doesn't have the time or energy to torment us."
Qin Shou'an breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't care about the physical problems of these old women, so he wouldn't ask more about the problem.
This means that tomorrow he will enter the palace as King Langya and see His Majesty to thank him. He only has to face the Emperor and does not have to worry about the Queen Mother suddenly making trouble.
"That's good." Qin Shouan said with emotion, "Having an old man in the family is like having a treasure."
"What did you say?" Tang Wanrong couldn't help but turn around. The remaining blush on her cheeks had not yet dissipated, but she was so angry at his words that she wanted to shoot him into a hedgehog with her eyes like arrows.
"Ah... no, I didn't mean that. I meant that Aunt Tang is indeed a peerless treasure as my father said."
Qin Shou'an explained. After coughing, he saw that her expression softened slightly and there was anger in her eyebrows, so he quickly diverted her attention:
"Hei Ji and Bai Ji seem to be still squatting outside the door over there... It's getting late, Aunt Tang, you should rest early."
These two people are really bored... When Tang Wanrong heard that they were still there, she hesitated for a moment, and did not care about what he said about "there is an old man in the family". She sighed softly: "You should go back first... At this time, I It’s still a bit too early, I won’t be able to sleep until later.”
After speaking, Tang Wanrong couldn't help but think of what he said when he was at Wang Xie Fengyue Tower: I dreamed back at midnight, and there was no shoulder to rely on on the pillow next to me, and there was no one to rely on in the quilt...
Since he said he would go to bed later, he wouldn't be thinking that she was lonely and unable to sleep, right?
Tang Wanrong raised her hands to cover her soft eyebrows and eyelashes, and looked at him sideways. If he still dared to say these words, would she not deal with him?
"I actually can't sleep either." Qin Shouan thought of Wang Xie Fengyue Tower and how he tickled the soles of her feet.
Although the words he said at the time were just to tease her, they actually made sense... When a woman reaches this age, it is indeed easy for a woman to have trouble sleeping alone. She either feels cold in bed or her body is hot.
"Let me tell you a story."
"Ah...oh, good...good." Tang Wanrong was a little surprised. Instead of going back to Haitang Chunwu to enjoy those enchanting women and girls, he wanted to tell stories here and accompany her who didn't know how to be romantic. A boring woman?
But even though the humiliation by him in Wang Xie Fengyue Tower was unbearable, Tang Wanrong still liked to listen to the stories he told, whether it was about Zhao Min and Zhang Wuji, or the ones he told when he deceived her about the veil in the accounting room. The stories of Fahai and White Snake are quite interesting.
Especially compared to Hei Ji's tales of heroes and heroines, and Bai Ji's tales of romantic talents and beauties, they are about a hundred thousand times more interesting.
"This story is about a man who parted ways with his childhood sweetheart. His sweetheart died, and he had too many misfortunes in his life. Then he got the chance to go back to his childhood, fall in love with his childhood sweetheart again, and save his sweetheart."
Qin Shou'an thought for a while, women are emotional creatures after all, and it doesn't matter to them that the plot is bloody. As long as the love and love can make her feel the same, she will feel wonderful and engaged.
"Ah... can't you continue telling the story of Zhang Wuji and Zhao Min?" Tang Wanrong looked at Qin Shou'an puzzled, "Or will there be no sequel to that story when it reaches Green Willow Villa?"
For some reason, Tang Wanrong had a special liking for this story. She always felt that Zhao Min in the story looked a bit like her.
She also had the soles of her feet scratched by someone she hated, and she wanted to know what happened to Zhao Min and Zhang Wuji later.
She didn't feel that Qin Shou'an was like Zhang Wuji in the story... Zhang Wuji clearly had feelings for Zhao Min, while Qin Shou'an had feelings for Tang Wanrong... it was nothing, it was not something she should think about.
"Of course there will be a sequel... Then I will continue to tell the story of Zhang Wuji and Zhao Min. After Zhang Wuji got the antidote, he found that his subordinates were under siege..."
As they talked, the white fish belly appeared in the east, and the morning light slowly filled the whole month. Arriving at Fenglai Pavilion, Tang Wanrong originally wanted to keep her upright sitting position, but she was a little tired after all, but she didn't want to go back to her room to rest. Lying on the couch diagonally.
Her eyes seemed to be open and closed, and she held the skirt with her fingers and shook it gently. She didn't care that her beautiful feet were no longer covered by the skirt. Under the soft morning light, they were stained with the cool air, and they looked like juicy and crispy. Raw radishes.
"Why is this Zhou Zhiruo so annoying... Actually Xiao Zhao is also quite annoying, and that Zhu'er is so disgusting, I feel like she is cuckolding Zhang Wuji..."
Tang Wanrong listened to Qin Shouan's story attentively. He suddenly paused, but Tang Wanrong could not help but comment. Among the women surrounding Zhang Wuji, except Zhao Min, no one liked her.
"The characters in the story cannot be the same. There are always people who like it and people who hate it." Qin Shou'an smiled, but she didn't expect that she would actually think that Zhu'er was cuckolding Zhang Wuji.
In fact, her idea makes some sense. Zhu'er liked Zhang Wuji when he was a child rather than him when he grew up. It's just that normal people are unlikely to care about this with Zhu'er. "Aunt Tang, you should have a good rest today. I have to prepare." Going to court."
Tang Wanrong squinted her eyes, and then she felt that the morning light coming from far away was already slightly dazzling. She had listened to him telling stories all night.
Somehow, my body felt extra soft and natural. Different from the usual dizzy and uncomfortable feeling when I couldn't fall asleep, now I felt that I could fall asleep comfortably just by touching the bed, which made me feel a little comfortable.
