Chapter 319 Wei Juyuan debuts
"No, there is no other person. What I mean is that Jinu always needs help in charge of the affairs of the palace. Either Shangguan Zhaorong, or Meiren Chen, and He Jieyu and the others."
"It's better than using them than Wan'er, don't you think?"
Queen Wei thought for a moment and could only agree for the time being.
What Li Xian said makes sense. Compared with other flowers and plants, Shangguan Wan'er can indeed tolerate it.
However, with the arrival of this hateful woman, her fighting nerves tensed up again.
When she returned to the bedroom in the morning, she immediately changed her face and angrily scolded Shangguan Wan'er from all directions and angles.
This is how women are. Many times, their behavior is very naive and they do something meaningless and stupid.
If you scold me here, Shangguan Wan'er can't hear a word, let alone feel humiliated.
She was relieved just now, but unexpectedly, news that made her even more unbearable came.
A series of footsteps outside the palace gate came in slowly.
The little eunuch came to communicate with him, saying that it was Wei Juyuan, the Minister of Rites, who asked for a visit.
This is a rare figure. Queen Wei immediately corrected her posture and waited to meet him.
Wei Juyuan is now a capable general in the Wei family and firmly supports Queen Wei's various acts of making trouble, so she has gained her trust.
Just like Lu Xiangzhi, she was also her newly cultivated confidant, but she entered the officialdom. She had a short time, no foundation or connections, so she could only use it as leisure chess for future use.
However, Wei Juyuan has been in the officialdom for decades, is very proficient in all matters and has power.
Queen Wei and him joined forces and it was very smooth.
She sat upright on Hu's bed, looking at Wei Juyuan with a serious face and walked in. The expression on his face was not quite good-looking.
It seems that what he brought was not the good news that Queen Wei was looking forward to.
Wei Juyuan saluted respectfully and then went straight to the point.
"Empress, King Qiao is back."
"What did you say!"
Queen Wei jumped up from the bed, her eyes raked, as if she was glaring at King Kong.
Dragging the hem of the huge skirt, she quickly approached Wei Juyuan.
He asked viciously: "Why is this guy back? Is the news reliable?"
Her heart was thumping, beating fast, how hopeful, it was a rumor, an unproven news.
However, Wei Juyuan's words immediately broke her fantasy.
"It's true. According to the news received by Weichen, King Qiao has arrived in Suizhou."
"Why is it so fast?"
"Who allowed him to come back, Your Majesty?"
After she asked this question, she regretted it. Who could make a decision for such a big thing except Li Xian's instructions?
However, she wandered around Li Xian every day, and didn't notice any signs.
Empress Wei cannot accept such a thing, which shows that there are cracks in her control over Li Xian.
This chaotic emperor began to escape from his control and stopped obeying her command.
It's outrageous!
"When did Your Majesty decide to let King Qiao come back?"
"I don't know the specific date. When Weichen received the news, King Qiao had already arrived in Suizhou. Now I'm afraid that there have been several more prefectures and counties."
"But what is certain is that His Majesty must have issued a decree to allow him to come back."
"According to the news below, King Qiao came back with flags and ceremonies in a carriage that complies with the royal regulations. It was very grand and glorious."
"If it weren't for the grace of Your Majesty, I think King Qiao would not dare to do this."
The blows were really blown one after another, and Queen Wei was so angry that her heart was about to explode.
This means that soon, she will deal with the fierce attacks of two people she hates the most.
One Shangguan Wan'er is not enough, and another difficult King Qiao came.
Li Xian’s promise sounded in her ears: I will never let King Qiao return to Beijing.
The words are still in my ears, what does he mean to do this?
She really wanted to rush into the Daming Palace now and point at his nose and scold him, but she knew that it was not the time and she had to figure out the whole story.
Since Li Xian couldn't count on him, she could only find a way to clear the obstacles herself.
Queen Wei waved softly, and Wei Juyuan dragged her aging body and moved to her side.
The two almost whispered secretly.
Queen Wei whispered a few words, her face full of ambitiousness.
Wei Juyuan retreated repeatedly, showing great fear.
After hearing the task assigned by Queen Wei, his head was as if he was hit.
"Empress, don't do this!"
"Why can't it be possible? He is unkind and I am not righteous!" Queen Wei stared at her big eyes and threatened.
Wei Juyuan felt the sweat on his face gradually falling along his gully cheeks. He raised his hand to wipe it, trying to save the situation.
"Empress, this matter is very important. If you want to do it, you must be fully confident."
"What a complete grasp," Empress Wei brushed her sleeves, very disdainful: "After you are a Minister of Rites, you can't do such a thing?"
Although Wei Juyuan is now the queen's most capable helper, he is really not a young talent.
He is almost eighty years old, and he is shaking his hands without moving.
The only one who supports his old bones is not only the power of the Wei family, but also the dissatisfaction with the sharp decline in official positions.
As we all know, he used to be the prime minister. Although it was not long, only two months, he was always enjoyable.
Unexpectedly, before his butt was hot, his clan uncle Wei Anshi was kicked off the stage.
Wei Anshi, a man, was not only a stumbling block in his glory and career, but also made him completely lose face in his family.
You know, although Wei Anshi occupies the seniority of his clan uncle, he is actually a teenager younger than Wei Juyuan. How could Wei Juyuan be willing to let such a person step on his head?
So he dragged his stubborn body and wanted to jump around in front of the queen.
However, he really didn't dare to take on the errands assigned to him this time.
He hesitated for a while, and finally, under the pressure of Wei's eyes, he said the truth.
"The Empress, it was not me who deliberately shirked it. It was just that I was in charge of the Ministry of Rites, and I really didn't have enough staff to do such a thing."
"Besides, King Qiao has a noble status and has been allowed to return to the capital. I advise the Empress to not have any trouble."
Wei was already furious at this time, so he could not hear him.
"Don't avoid the important things. If things are easy to deal with, will I still need you?"
Without an answer, Wei Juyuan lowered his head and half-bowed his body to show his respect.
He could not agree with Queen Wei's arrangement, but he could not stop her from doing things that were ignorant.
He understood that this woman's natural stubborn arrogance would definitely push herself into a bottomless abyss.
Wei Juyuan's mission is to try to protect the queen without harming the strength of the Wei family.
When the queen becomes a useless chess, giving up is powerless.
He hopes that the later that day will come, the better.
