Zheng Ji knew that now was not the time to think seriously, so he just cupped his hands towards Du Tong and replied, "Thank you, Master Taifu, for your advice." Seriously.
This was indeed advice from Taifu Du, and it was extremely difficult for Du Tong to give her advice at this time.
She really never thought about the relationship between Lu Guang and the Queen Mother. Even if she heard about it from Du Tong, she didn't think so. Lu Guang was an upright person, and the Queen Mother was not a person who indulged in love. She could not imagine that these two people would do anything shady.
However, the facts of the palace are really unpredictable, and there is no need for any evidence. In addition, with Empress Xue's coordination, no one can predict how things will progress.
The only thing she knew was that it seemed that she and her mother-in-law were not the only ones targeting Cining Palace.
If Empress Xue took advantage of the relationship between Lu Guang and the Empress Dowager and smeared the two of them, then Lu Guang would not have to think about the position of commander of the Beiya Imperial Army.
She was silent for a moment and asked curiously: "Master Tutor, does the Emperor and Empress really know this news?"
Since the father knew it and still planned to reuse Lu Guang, it meant that the father did not believe such a thing in his heart.
As for Queen Xue...
If she wanted to take action on this matter, then Lu Guang wouldn't even be able to take the lead of Dong Gong Zuo before.
Since neither of them had any dissatisfaction with Lu Guang, it meant that the matter was not what she thought.
Du Tong nodded and replied affirmatively: "I do know."
But he didn't know what the emperor and empress thought of this matter.
"Presumably, even if Lu Guang took care of the Queen Mother, it would only be for a short time, right?" Zheng Ji asked again.
"It was very short. Lu Guang's time as a guard in the palace was already very short." Du Tong made no secret of this.
Afterwards, Lu Guang went to the Gyeonggi Guard, and he was no longer the little palace guard he was before.
Of course, the Queen Mother is gradually becoming more powerful, and it is no longer something that a small bodyguard can take care of.
"I see..." Zheng Ji narrowed his eyes and had nothing to say.
She always felt that something didn't make sense, but she couldn't explain it at once.
At this time, Du Tong waved his hand and said: "Your Highness, the Queen Mother has not left Cining Palace for many years. If there is nothing important, there is no need to disturb her."
Du Tong's meaning was very clear. The reason why he told what happened between Lu Guang and the Queen Mother Lu was to prevent Zheng Ji from disturbing the Queen Mother's peace.
In other words, she was asked to resolve the possible actions of Queen Xue.
He didn't want to see people who had made great contributions to the country being thrown such dirty water.
Master Taifu, you really think highly of me... Zheng Ji thought silently, but said seriously: "Master Taifu, all I can say is that I will do my best!"
She never talks too much and won't make a promise easily before something is done.
She had just learned about Lu Guang, and she could only guess at Queen Xue's thoughts. In fact, she didn't know what Queen Xue planned to do or what tactics she would use.
Naturally, I dare not agree to anything rashly.
Queen Xue is a cautious person, and will not take action easily if she is not completely sure.
Moreover, Lu Guang is now the leader of the East Palace and has a close relationship with the East Palace. If Lu Guang really gets into any scandal, it may not be a good thing for the East Palace.
Of course, more importantly, who is Lu Guang?
If he could be easily designed and dealt with, he wouldn't have caused such a headache to the Prince's family.
"Master Taifu, you are worrying too much, General Lu can handle it." Zheng Ji said again.
She didn't think anything would happen to Lu Guang. In his previous life, he was able to enjoy his old age.
Du Tong stroked his beard and replied: "I accept your highness's kind words."
Zheng Ji smiled and said nothing more.
She came to Taifu's Mansion originally because she wanted to understand that sentence from Du Tong's mouth, but she didn't expect to hear such a thing.
As for
"The Queen Mother can determine the heir apparent" is a sentence that, in the end, only the Queen Mother can understand.
As Du Tong said, don't disturb the Queen Mother's peace, it seems she can't do it.
She still remembered that after the Jiang family and Tao family had troubles one after another, the Queen Mother fell seriously ill and died soon after.
I don't know how the Queen Mother's body is now, but she still wants to go to Cining Palace as soon as possible.
This could only be done after the martial arts competition. She had already obtained grace from her father, so it was better not to create complications before the matter was accomplished.
The last time to see the Queen Mother is not now.
Du Tong looked at Zheng Ji, then at Du Fengju beside him, his lips moved, but in the end he did not speak.
His suggestions could only go so far. The rest was to look at Chang Ding Dian Xia and Feng Ju.
~~~
At the same time, Queen Xue in Kunning Palace also knew the conditions promised by Emperor Yongning.
"Is the emperor really saying that, as long as Chang Ding achieves a good ranking in the martial arts competition, Concubine Jiang will be allowed to leave Fuqing Palace?" Empress Xue said calmly.
"Hui Niang, that's right. This is the news from Zichen Palace." Aunt Fu Fen replied respectfully.
This news must be correct, otherwise His Highness Changding would not leave so obediently, and Fuqing Palace would not be able to maintain such calm.
"Ha." Queen Xue smiled, with a hint of sarcasm on her dignified face, "Do the Jiang family really think that the emperor is a puppet in their hands?"
They regard the emperor's favor as nothing. They don't want it if they don't want it, and they can get it if they want it. Is this... isn't it too childish?
Her eyes became colder and she ordered: "Fu Fen, please invite the prince to come."
Since Chang Ding has pinned her hopes on the martial arts competition, she, as a mother, must fulfill her filial piety.
Chang Ding wanted to use this martial arts competition to compete, and coincidentally, she also wanted to use it.
If she uses it well, maybe she can get her wish.
After all, the Bei Ya Forbidden Army will be established soon, and the candidate for the commander will be decided by then.
Lu Guang... was really not her preferred candidate, but Lu Guang was really not that easy to deal with.
Unless the matter was so critical that it would affect the prince's status, she would not be willing to disturb the Cining Palace in any case - the Queen Mother had something in her hands that she was extremely taboo about.
With Concubine Jiang being grounded, the eyes of the ministers of the DPRK and China towards the Jiang family also became more unpredictable.
No one thought that Concubine Jiang, who had doted on the harem for many years, would be rejected by the emperor at this time.
You know, before this, the ministers of the DPRK and China did not dare to think like this.
Because the emperor is an infatuated person, which they have all recognized for more than ten years.
Once the infatuation becomes ruthless, the ministers will be caught off guard.
Of course they don't care about the affairs in the harem. What they care about is how much impact Concubine Jiang's fall from favor will have on the situation in the court?
Although Concubine Jiang is said to have no children, Concubine Jiang still has a son, His Highness Chang Ding. Moreover, the Jiang family behind Concubine Jiang is the richest man in the country.
Could it be that the position of the richest man in the country is about to be replaced?
It is a pity that the Jiang family is living in seclusion as usual. Not to mention Jiang Baoshan and Qian Shengxue, even Jiang Xun and others who used to move around a lot have gradually fallen silent.
I don’t know if the Jiang family’s behavior is to express their acceptance of the emperor’s kindness, or if they are silently preparing something?
Nobody knows.
There was no further news from the palace. It seemed that the matter came to an end after the emperor demoted Concubine Jiang to the throne and grounded her.
The only one still moving is Wuge.
"First update!"
