Scheme of the Official Descendant

After reading the letter, Rong put it on the kang table, looked at Ren Yaoqi and said, "Did Xiao Jingxi ask Princess Yanbei to hand it over to you?"

Ren Yaoqi sensed the displeasure in Rong's words, and was about to say something, when Rong frowned and said, "I thought that although Xiao Jingxi was young, he was calm and trustworthy in doing things. I overestimated him."

Ren Yaoqi heard the displeasure in Rong's words, fearing that she would blame Xiao Jingxi, she hurriedly said: "Grandmother, don't be angry, I'm actually responsible for this matter, Second Young Master Xiao has helped me a lot on weekdays, You are also familiar with me, so this time I will send a letter, in fact..."

Rong frowned even more and said: "You mean you walked very close to him?"

Ren Yaoqi couldn't help being dumb, how should I answer this? It would be a lie to say that they are not close, but she can't say that an unmarried woman is close to an unmarried man.

Looking at Ren Yaoqi's expression, Rong couldn't help but feel thoughtful.

Ren Yaoqi was thinking about how to explain the relationship between herself and Xiao Jingxi, but she heard Rong's indifferent voice: "Xiao Jingxi disappeared, what does this have to do with our Xianwangfu? You go back and tell Princess Yanbei, We can't help anything, as for the person Xiao Jingxi mentioned in his heart, we don't know who it is."

Rong's answer was somewhat beyond Ren Yaoqi's expectation. She opened her mouth to say something, but in the end she gave a wry smile and replied, "I see, grandma, this time I didn't think carefully, so I'll give you the answer." I caused trouble with my grandfather, I will be careful next time."

Perhaps it was because the terms of the agreement between Xiao Jingxi and Xianwangfu had not been reached, or maybe because of some considerations, Xianwangfu had repented now, but these were not things that Ren Yaoqi could intervene. Xianwangfu has the position and consideration of Xianwangfu, she can't force Xianwangfu to change her mind for her own selfishness.

Moreover, she didn't know the whole story of this matter, even if she wanted to facilitate the cooperation between Xian Wangfu and Yanbei Wangfu, she couldn't say anything meaningful.

But even so, Ren Yaoqi was still a little sad. What she was worried about was that Xian Wangfu was unwilling to help Xiao Jingxi now, and whether Xiao Jingxi could come back safely.

If Xiao Jingxi can't come back...

Perhaps she should ask clearly what exactly was the agreement between Xiao Jingxi and Xian Wangfu, and see if she can find a way to remedy it? After all, if it is impossible for King Xian to help, the Yanbei Palace is not without people.

Thinking of this, Ren Yaoqi also settled down, but she didn't know if Rong would tell her. If Rong didn't say anything, would she think of any way to persuade her?

Rong saw the change in Ren Yaoqi's expression, but didn't speak, just lowered his head and took a sip of tea, then looked at Wan Yan, not knowing what he was thinking.

Ren Yaoqi was thinking about her speech and wanted to speak, but she heard Li Gan's voice outside saying, "Who's in there?"

Chu Chu replied: "If you go back to the master, it is Miss Ren Fifth who is talking with the old lady in the room."

Li Gan said "hmm", and then the footsteps got closer and closer, and walked in.

Sure enough, Li Gan appeared beside the curtain after a while.

Ren Yaoqi hurriedly stood up and saluted: "Grandfather."

Li Gan nodded: "Yaoqi is here, Mrs. Rong, let the cook roast all the game for her to taste."

Rong stood up, waited for Li Qian to sit down on the kang, and then sat down with Ren Yaoqi, and said with a smile: "I have ordered you to go down."

Li Gan nodded, and then saw the letter on the Kang table. He looked at Rong Shi and Ren Yaoqi, then reached out to pick up the letter and opened it steadily.

Ren Yaoqi didn't think too much about it, thinking that Li Gan would reject Xiao Jingxi's request just like Rong's, but she didn't want to but heard Li Gan suspiciously say: "Why did Xiao's boy write this letter just now, didn't someone already send it to him?" Is it? Isn't it here yet?"

Ren Yaoqi was taken aback when she heard the words, and raised her head to look at Li Gan inexplicably: "Grandfather, do you mean that you have already lent him the person he borrowed from you?"

Li Gan nodded, glanced at Ren Yaoqi and then at Rong Shi: "Didn't she bring this letter? You didn't tell her?"

Ren Yaoqi also looked at Rong.

Rong smiled without changing his expression: "Oh, just as I was about to say something, you came in."

Ren Yaoqi: "..."

Rong glanced at Ren Yaoqi, and said meaningfully: "I am just curious why he gave this letter to Wang Hao, and asked Wang Hao to send it to Yao Qi."

Ren Yaoqi was very depressed. It turned out that after seeing the letter, Rong knew that she had come for nothing, so the words she said later were just to test her, and if she didn't want her to care, it would be messy. Seeing the flaws, not only defending Xiao Jingxi, but also racking his brains to find out some words from Rong, now looking back, Ren Yaoqi feels that he is really stupid, Ren Yaoqi has not felt this kind of frustration for a long time up.

Hearing this, Li Qian also glanced at Ren Yaoqi, then picked up the letter and read it again. This time Li Gan frowned, then turned to ask Ren Yaoqi, "This is the letter he gave to the princess. , let the princess give it to you?"

Ren Yaoqi nodded honestly, she now understands that no matter how smart she thinks she is, with Rong here, her cleverness can only be regarded as a little cleverness, and if she is not careful, she will be fooled by that little cleverness. wrong.

Li Gan stroked his beard and thought for a while, just when Ren Yaoqi thought he would say something, he put down the letter and said, "Mr. Rong, I have been thinking about it all morning, and the wild goose that has been domesticated for a long time has also killed Qing Zheng. Bar."

Ren Yaoqi: "..."

Mrs. Rong replied with a good temper: "Today we already have a dish of angelica chicken soup, let Yihong raise the wild geese first."

Wild geese and chickens...is there any necessary connection?

Li Qian thought for a while, then nodded calmly and said, "Well, they are all birds, so let's let it go for now."

Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but be overwhelmed.

"You guys are chatting, I went for a walk in the yard, I just had a lot of snacks to digest my food." Li Gan patted his clothes, got up and said.

Rong Shi and Ren Yaoqi hurriedly got up and watched him go out.

After Li Gan left, Ren Yaoqi and Rong Shifu sat down again, and Rong Shi said, "Do you have any questions?"

According to common sense, Ren Yaoqi should blush in embarrassment, and then say that she doesn't want to know anything about the relationship, but Ren Yaoqi nodded generously and said: "Yes, grandma, I want to ask Xian Wangfu and Whether there was any agreement between the second young master Xiao, of course, if it is really inconvenient to say, you can pretend that I did not ask."

Rong couldn't help but glanced at Ren Yaoqi, and then smiled: "Since he can trust you as an outsider, there is nothing we can't say as close relatives. You said before that Xiao Jingxi disappeared in Jinzhou? The Hezhong area where Jinzhou is located is the last retreat left by Concubine Wan Gui in the past."

"In the past?" Ren Yaoqi frowned.

When was it in the past? Isn't it the way out now?

Rong sighed: "Yes, Yanbei is not the last retreat left by Concubine Wan Gui, but in Hezhong, she told us to wait for Yanbei and the imperial court to really turn their backs, and when the two sides fight and there is no time for him to take care of us You will be able to go back to Hezhong Mansion, your grandfather still has an imperial edict in his hand, it is an edict to canonize him as the king of Hezhong, and the time on the edict is after the previous edict to abolish the king."

"When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman wins?" Ren Yaoqi asked in surprise.

She has always been a little strange before, Concubine Wan Gui and Empress Dowager Yan have been fighting evenly for decades, and even Concubine Wan Gui has the upper hand for a long time, why Concubine Wan Gui will be defeated in the end like a mountain, Not to mention the complete disintegration of the power, not only could he not keep his son, he even lost his own life.

Looking at it now, the situation on Concubine Wan's side was not as disadvantaged as she thought, and the power of the Hezhong Generation she had managed had not fallen apart as the outside world thought.

She brought King Xian under the eyes of King Yanbei, so that King Xian's life was protected by the Yanbei Palace, and the forces in Hezhong were able to escape the court's sight and continue to develop and stabilize in secret.

At this time, she had to admire Concubine Wan Gui, and her strategies and methods to figure out people's hearts, she did everything perfectly, and she even planned so far behind her own death.

Rong sighed again: "That's right, but I didn't expect that one of the snipe and clam would take the initiative to come to us before the fisherman had benefited."

Ren Yaoqi immediately thought of Xiao Jingxi's last visit: "You mean, Second Young Master Xiao?"

Rong Shi nodded and sighed, "Young people are awesome!"

Ren Yaoqi was thinking that in her last life, before her death, the conflict between Yanbei and the imperial court had become clear, and the situation between the north and the south had become tense as never before, but she still did not live long enough to see King Xian holding the imperial edict The day when he went to become king in Hezhong may be because the time has not come, or it may also be because of the intervention of the Second Young Master Xiao, something happened in it.

"He knew the escape route that Concubine Wan Gui left for you in the river, so he used this to threaten you to use it for him?" Ren Yaoqi didn't want to think of Xiao Jingxi as bad, but when it comes to political struggles, , There is no way to judge a person by good or bad, everyone can stick to and rely on their stand.

Rong shook his head and said, "No, he just proposed mutual benefit and reciprocity."

Seeing Ren Yaoqi looking at her, Rong smiled, and stretched out his hand to help Ren Yaoqi smooth the hair on his forehead: "It's an alliance, Xian Wangfu and Yanbei Wangfu form an alliance. We will lend it to him when he needs it." The power in the river, and he guarantees our safety in Yanbei, and waits until the day we return to the river, the Yanbei Palace will not obstruct and recognize the late emperor's imperial edict."

I see!

Ren Yaoqi thought that she was not wrong when she guessed that there was an agreement between Xiao Jingxi and Prince Xian's Mansion, but she did not expect this game of chess to be so big.

Seeing that Ren Yaoqi bowed her head and said nothing, Mrs. Rong sighed and said, "Back then, we were the ones who let your mother down."
