Princess Jin was so angry that her mouth twisted, but she was helpless. She was a disciple of Ming Wudao, and her background was better than that of a high official in the imperial court.
She endured her anger and went back to order someone to make soup, then sat in front of the lamp and waited, anxiously thinking about how to get back on her feet. If she continued like this, sooner or later the bitch would ride on top of her.
In the side hall, Concubine Xiao leaned on Prince Jin's arms and offered her a glass of wine. Her eyes were full of charm and said, "Your Majesty, I would like to propose a toast to you. I wish you to be appointed Minister of the Ministry of War, and I also wish that you will reach a higher level in the future." .”
King Jin looked at her, took the wine and finished it, and said, "I would like to hear this."
Putting down the wine glass, he held Concubine Xiao's chin, his eyes flashed slightly, "You can talk to your master when you have time. If possible, invite her to come to your house to talk."
He always had hope in Ming Wudao, because she did not assist the prince and was just lurking in the East Palace, but no one knew what she was thinking.
Moreover, it was because he persisted in being a lobbyist that she came out of the palace in the first place. After she entered the East Palace, he felt aggrieved and angry. Fortunately, she did not become the prince's adviser.
And now that he is in charge of the military department, if he can get help from Ming Wudao, he will definitely be able to accomplish great things.
Concubine Xiao Qiao smiled brightly and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will go to the East Palace to honor the master more often. As for the master's attitude, I think it is still worthy of discussion. She does not take care of things in the East Palace and rarely even meets the prince. Maybe She is still observing to see who is worthy of her assistance."
This coincides with King Jin's speculation. Official position and power can give a person strong self-confidence. He feels that the right time and place are just right, so he just wants to make peace with him.
"Your Majesty, I heard that you invited a spiritual monk to dinner tonight, but he didn't come. This man is aloof and cold, and he doesn't want to interact with others. Moreover, the master he is loyal to now is your enemy. Naturally, he will be taboo and dare not come. It's better to Start with his family, ask his mother to come to the house through my concubine, then send someone to inform him, and make a few plausible threats. For the sake of his mother's safety, he will definitely come."
King Jin frowned, "Since I am trying to win over him, why should I threaten him?"
"Your Majesty, the way to employ people is to use kindness and prestige at the same time." Concubine Xiao stood up and poured the wine. She held the wine glass with her slender fingertips and brought it to Prince Jin. "Moreover, when he came, the prince said that he invited him to be the Minister of War. He was very grateful. It's too late. Furthermore, if he really serves as the Minister of War, will he be used by the prince? It's better to let him understand first. If he doesn't obey, his family will be the one who suffers. He will be able to weigh his actions in the future. .”
King Jin looked at her and said, "You do know how to play with power."
Concubine Xiao smiled charmingly, "I just want to give advice to the prince."
She wants to enter the center of power, instead of just competing for favor in the backyard. Using sex with others is an insult to her, and she just has no choice at the moment.
King Jin naturally saw her ambition and said calmly: "If you can help me, I will not treat you badly."
Ambition in his opinion is nothing more than status, wealth and splendor, which he can promise to anyone who can do it well.
Everyone who receives something in his hands must give something.
Including what a woman wants from him, she has to pay a price, either through family power or financial support.
There were many concubines in his house. Most of the concubines came with money, while the concubines came with family power.
Leng Xiao is an exception. She has no family background, no power, and only one master, Ming Wudao. However, Ming Wudao doesn't pay much attention to her, so if she wants to get something from him, it depends on her ability.
"I'll leave the spiritual cultivation matters to you." Prince Jin let go of her chin and said calmly.
"I will definitely live up to the prince's trust." Leng Xiao smiled slightly, stood up and said.
