Chapter 281: This is a big game (pink 600+)

After reading the letter, Rong placed it on the Kang table and looked at Ren Yaoqi and said, "Did Xiao Jingxi let Princess Yanbei give it to you?"
Ren Yaoqi noticed the dissatisfaction in Rong's words, and was about to say something. Rong had already frowned and said, "I thought that although Xiao Jingxi was not very young, he was calm and credible in doing things, but he didn't want to. I overestimated him."
Ren Yaoqi heard the displeasure in Rong's words, afraid that she would blame Xiao Jingxi, and hurriedly said: "Grandma, don't be angry. Actually, this matter also blames me. Second Young Master Xiao helped me a lot on weekdays. It’s familiar with me, so I will send the letter this time. Actually..."
Rong Shi frowned more and more: "You mean you are very close to him?"
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help being dumb, how should I answer this? It must be a lie to say that it's not close, but she couldn't say that an unmarried woman approached an unmarried man.
Rong Shi looked at Ren Yaoqi's expression and couldn't help thinking.
Ren Yaoqi was thinking about how to explain his involvement with Xiao Jingxi, but he heard Rong's indifferent words: "Xiao Jingxi has disappeared. What does this have to do with our offering to the palace? Go back and tell Princess Yanbei, We can’t do anything to help. As for the person Xiao Jingxi mentioned in his heart, we don’t know who it is."
Rong's answer was a bit unexpected for Ren Yaoqi. She opened her mouth to say something, but in the end she gave a wry smile and replied: "I see, grandmother, this time it's because of me that I was thinking badly. I have caused trouble with my grandfather, and I will be careful next time."
Perhaps it was because the terms of the agreement between Xiao Jingxi and King Xian's Mansion had not been reached yet, or perhaps the King's Mansion had been repented for some reason, but these were not something Ren Yaoqi could intervene. Xian Wang Mansion has the position and consideration of Xian Wang Mansion, she can't insist on Xian Wang Mansion to change her mind for her own selfishness.
And she didn't know the whole story of this matter, even if she wanted to promote the cooperation between Xian Wangfu and Yanbei Wangfu, she couldn't say anything meaningful.
But despite this, Ren Yaoqi was still a little sad. What she worried about was that the Royal Palace Xian was unwilling to help Xiao Jingxi now and whether Xiao Jingxi could return safely.
If Xiao Jingxi can't come back...
Maybe she should ask Xiao Jingxi and Xianwang's mansion what exactly was the agreement before, and see if she can find a way to remedy it? After all, if King Xian couldn't help, the Yanbei Palace was not without people.
Thinking this way, Ren Yaoqi's mind was also settled, but she didn't know whether Rong Shi would like to tell her. If Rong Shi didn't say anything, would she think of any way to persuade?
Rong Shi saw the change in Ren Yaoqi's expression in his eyes, but did not speak, he lowered his head and took a sip of tea, then looked at the bowl edge and wondered what he was thinking.
Ren Yaoqi was thinking about his words, and wanted to speak, but he heard Li Gan's voice outside saying: "Who is inside?"
Chu Chu replied: "In response to the master, Miss Ren Wu is here, talking to the old lady in the room."
Li Gan let out a "um", and then the closer the footsteps were, he walked in.
Sure enough, Li Gan appeared by the curtain in a short while.
Ren Yaoqi hurriedly got up and saluted: "Grandfather."
Li Gan nodded: "Yaoqi is here, Rong Shi, let the chef roast all the game for her to taste."
Rong Shi got up, waited for Li Gan to sit down on the kang before sitting down with Ren Yaoqi, and said with a smile: "The concubine has already ordered 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 and picked up the letter and opened it smoothly.
Ren Yaoqi didn’t think much about it. He thought that Li Gan would reject Xiao Jingxi’s request just like Rong’s, but he didn’t want to hear Li Gan suspiciously said: "Why did the Xiao family guy write a letter now? Is it? Isn't it here yet?"
Ren Yaoqi was taken aback when he heard the words, and inexplicably raised his head to look at Li Gan: "Grandfather, you mean the person he borrowed from you has already lent him?"
Li Gan nodded, looked at Ren Yaoqi and then at Rong Shi: "Isn't this letter brought by her? You didn't tell her?"
Ren Yaoqi also looked at Rong Shi.
Rong's face remained unchanged and smiled and said, "Oh, just as the concubine was about to say, you came in."
Ren Yaoqi: "..."
Rong Shi glanced at Ren Yaoqi and said meaningfully: "The concubine is just wondering why he would give this letter to the princess, and let the princess send it to Yaoqi."
Ren Yaoqi was very depressed. It turned out that Rong Shi knew that she had come for nothing after seeing the letter, so the following remarks were just to test her. If she didn't want her to care, it would be messy and because Rong Shi was her close relative and was unprepared. Seeing the flaws, not only did I defend Xiao Jingxi, I was still racking my brains to take a look at Rongshi here. Looking back on it, Ren Yaoqi felt that he was really stupid. Ren Yaoqi hadn’t experienced this kind of frustration for a long time. Up.
Li Gan also glanced at Ren Yaoqi when he heard the words, then picked up the letter and read it again. This time Li Gan frowned when he looked at it, then he turned to ask Ren Yaoqi and said, "This is what he gave to the princess. , Let the princess give it to you?"
Ren Yaoqi nodded honestly. She understands now, no matter how she thinks she is smart, with Rong here, her cleverness can only be regarded as a little cleverness, and if she is not careful, she will be given by that little cleverness. By mistake.
Li Gan felt his beard and thought for a while. Just when Ren Yaoqi thought he would say something, he put the letter down and said: "Rong Shi, I thought all morning, the wild goose that had been domesticated for a long time was also killed Right."
Ren Yaoqi: "..."
Rong replied with a good temper: "There is already an angelica chicken soup today. Let Yihong raise the wild goose first."
Is there any necessary connection between wild goose and domestic chicken?
Li Gan thought for a while and nodded calmly, "Well, it's all poultry, so let's give it up for now."
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but fall.
"While you are chatting, I just walked around in the yard. I just used a lot of snacks to eliminate food." Li Gan patted his clothes and stood up.
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, "What else do you want to ask?"
According to common sense, Ren Yaoqi should blush and be embarrassed, and then said that he didn’t want to know anything about the clean relationship. However, Ren Yaoqi nodded openly and said: "Yes, grandmother, I want to ask about Xian Wangfu and Is there any agreement between the two sons of Xiao? Of course, if it is really inconvenient to say, you can assume that I have not asked."
Rong couldn't help but glance at Ren Yaoqi, and then smiled: "Since he can trust you as an outsider, what can't be said about our dearest relatives. You said that Xiao Jingxi disappeared in Jinzhou? The Hezhong area where Jinju is located is the last retreat left to us by Concubine Wan."
"In the past?" Ren Yaoqi frowned.
When did it pass? Isn't it a retreat now?
Rong sighed: "Yes, the last escape route left to us by Concubine Wan is not Yanbei, but in the river, she confessed that we waited for Yanbei and the court to really turn their faces, and the two sides had no time to take care of him. You can go back to Hezhong Mansion. Your grandfather still has an emperor's edict in his hand. It is an edict that canonized him as the king of Hezhong. The time on the edict is after the previous edict of the abolished king."
"Snipe and clam fight, fisherman profit?" Ren Yaoqi asked in surprise.
She had always been a little strange before. In the decades of struggle between Concubine Wan and Empress Dowager Yan, the two were evenly matched. For a long time, Concubine Wan was still in the upper hand. Why would Concubine Wan be defeated in the end? Not to mention the fact that all the forces collapsed, not only could he not save his son, but he even lost his life.
It now appears that the situation of the concubine Wan was not as inferior as she thought, and the power of the Hezhong generation she had managed did not overwhelm the hunger as the outside world thought it would.
She got King Xian under the eyes of King Yanbei. In this way, King Xian's life was sheltered by the Yanbei Palace, and the Hezhong forces were able to escape the sight of the court and continued to develop and stabilize in secret.
At this time, she had to admire Concubine Wan, and she tried to figure out the hearts of the people. She did everything perfectly, and she even calculated so far after her death.
Rong sighed again: "It was originally true, but I didn't expect that the fisherman hadn't profited yet, and one of the snipes would take the initiative to find them."
Ren Yaoqi immediately thought of Xiao Jingxi's last visit: "You mean, Second Young Master Xiao?"
Rong Shi nodded, and sighed: "The younger generation is terrible!"
Ren Yaoqi was thinking that the conflict between Yanbei and the court had become clear before her death in the previous life, and the situation in the north and south had become unprecedentedly tense, but she still did not live to see King Xian holding the edict of the first emperor. The day when he went to be the king of the river may not have arrived at the time, or it was also because of the intervention of the second son of Xiao that something changed.
"He knows the retreat that Concubine Wan Wan left for you in the river, so he uses this to threaten you to use it for him?" Ren Yaoqi also didn't want to think about Xiao Jingxi's bad things, but when it was involved in political struggles between the DPRK. , There is no longer any way to measure a person by good or bad, everyone can stick to and rely on only the stand.
Rong Shi shook his head and said, "No, he just proposed mutual benefit."
Seeing Ren Yaoqi looking at her, Rong smiled and stretched out his hand to help Ren Yaoqi stroke the hair in front of his forehead: "It is an alliance, and the alliance between the King's Mansion and the Yanbei King's Mansion. We will lend it when he needs it. The forces in the river, and he guarantees our safety in Yanbei, and waits until the day when we return to the river, the Yanbei Palace will not interfere and recognize the emperor’s edict."
That's it!
Ren Yaoqi thought that she had guessed that there was an agreement between Xiao Jingxi and King Xian's mansion before, and she did not guess wrong, but she did not expect this game of chess to be so big.
Seeing Ren Yaoqi bowed his head and said nothing, Rong sighed: "Back then, we were sorry for your mother."
