Team up with the Emperor? !
The emperor was in shock, but it was impossible to deny that this was the best way.
Because when the power of the family was higher than that of the emperor, the daughter of the family was more noble than the princess.
So sometimes, the emperor's attempt to win over the aristocratic family through marriage may not be successful, let alone attracting one party to sow discord at such a time.
But the emperors are different. The Shen family has a profound background. After three dynasties, they monopolized the production area with the most developed minerals. At present, the copper used for making money is provided by the Shen family.
Later, the emperor rose and monopolized a considerable part of agricultural assets. He was also known as the master of the world because of the establishment of the imperial examination.
It's up to him to win over some aristocratic families... No, it should be said that the emperor only needs to gather his family's family together, which is quite a powerful force.
The only thing the emperor has to do is to help him when he is in distress, gain his trust, become an ally for the time being, and then join forces with him to drive some people through him and gradually annex others.
This is of great benefit to the emperor. It not only relieves his urgent needs, but also further strengthens the family. He will not refuse at all.
There are also many benefits for the emperor. The more places are vacated in the court, the more space he can operate, and the more concentrated his power will be.
Thinking of this, the emperor's heart jumped!
Since the fall of the Xia family, the emperor has become another object he needs to guard against, so he restricts the emperor from leaving the capital and suppresses him everywhere. This time, he wants to use Xie Linlang to make the emperor suffer a big loss so as to weaken him. s right!
But Xie Linlang's "best policy" is obviously more attractive and more feasible. Once successful, he can greatly weaken the family and truly strengthen the imperial power!
The emperor took a few deep breaths, then got up and walked to the side, walking back and forth several times.
His mind was suddenly flooded with too much information, which made him a little bit unable to digest it for a while.
And Xie Linlang stood next to the dragon case, clutching the wound and waiting patiently.
She believed that after the front and the back impact, the emperor would believe that she was on the side of him, and subconsciously followed her guidance.
After all, her three strategies are indeed effective, and she is not afraid that the emperor will not see the subtlety of them.
At the same time, she couldn't help but sigh.
Originally, she didn't want to cause such a big storm in the capital, but the Mu family used her as an excuse to have trouble with her hair.
If there is no way to retreat, she doesn't mind standing at the apex of fate and being a chess player.

The emperor pondered for a long time, since the matter is big, he must not be the one to call the shots, and he has to gather some confidants and discuss it together!
At the same time, he also sighed in his heart, Xie Linlang really dared! Originally, when the Shen Mu family got into trouble, he just wanted to make things as big as possible, so as to attack the emperor and benefit the fisherman.
And the vision of other aristocratic family elders is not much higher than his, either holding the same purpose, or just watching.
But Xie Linlang was different. She didn't make a move. As soon as she made a move, she encouraged him to take the opportunity to win over the emperor and further disrupt the battle. It was bound to pull most of the aristocratic families in the capital into the water and play a big game!
So courageous, astonishing!
This also made the emperor more determined to give Xiangcheng to her, otherwise he would let her stay in the capital, and he would not be able to sleep well...
But those are things to come later, the most important thing right now is to determine whether the emperor is worth helping!
If the Mu family really has a handle that can ruin the emperor's reputation, then it is a wrong choice for him to win over the emperor.
So he asked Xie Linlang.
"You swear like this, presumably because you know what the Mu family has seized on the emperor's teacher?"
Without waiting for Xie Linlang to answer, he continued.
"What did the emperor do to be so passive? You must tell me the reason, otherwise, if I join forces with him, wouldn't I have to take myself in?"
Xie Linlang turned the Buddha beads in her hand and said with narrowed eyes.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, as long as the emperor can make up his mind to give up, the handle in the Mu family's hands will not hurt him..."
If the emperor insisted to protect her, it would be a shocking scandal! Although she was able to save her life, the reputation of the imperial teacher was also ruined. In this case, it is conceivable that her ending would not be much better.
But now that she has stood up and saved her own life, the pressure on the emperor will be much less. The only thing he has to do is to draw a clear line with her. Then, the other party's handle is not worth mentioning...
With Xie Linlang's words, the emperor felt a lot more at ease.
He was in a hurry to find his confidant to discuss, so he put Xie Linlang under house arrest in the side hall, not allowing her to go out a step.
Xie Linlang was not worried either. Winning the emperor's teacher was only the first step. The emperor would definitely ask her afterward how to pull some people and beat some people.
But that's all for later. The most important thing for her now is to take a bath, change her clothes, and re-medicate.
Just when she called someone to prepare water, an uninvited guest was ushered in the side hall.
In the tidy salute of the palace attendants, Xie Linlang raised her head and saw a woman in a goose-yellow palace dress, surrounded by a group of palace maids.
Her skin is fair and tender, and her body is plump, so even though she is in her thirties, she still looks like twenty seven or eight.
Xie Linlang frowned and got up from the couch to salute.
Because the harem was not allowed to engage in politics, and she lived in the main hall, the discussions were also political affairs, so she thought that there should be no intersection between the two, but who knew that the other party came to the door.
She thought to herself and cupped her hands.
"Concubine Hui is polite."
The person in front of him was the emperor's former Bai Yueguang, the person whom the queen hated the most, and one of Qin Jue's enemies, Liu Qinyi.
Hearing this, Liu Qinyi hurriedly took a few steps forward and held her hand.
"Thank you, you don't need to be too polite."
After she finished speaking, she explained with a smile, "Bengong is here to deliver some soup to His Majesty, but I heard that Lord Xie is back, so I asked His Majesty to come over and talk."
Xie Linlang instantly understood Liu Qinyi's position in the emperor's mind. At this time, he also allowed Liu Qinyi to see her, which only showed that he trusted Liu Qinyi very much. It seemed that the lord of the harem, she was sitting very firmly.
Speaking of Liu Qinyi, the first thing Xie Linlang thought of was the rumor she heard after returning from the Northland a year ago.
It is rumored that a large part of the reason why the emperor will take action against the Xia family is because of Liu Qinyi.
She is the emperor's white moonlight, but after entering the palace, the emperor is afraid of the power of the Xia family, and even if he likes her, he can't dote on her, including the children she gave birth to.
This grievance was unbearable for commoners, let alone the emperor, so after ten years of forbearance, the emperor finally overthrew the control of the Xia family and began to dote on the woman he really liked, and made the child she gave birth to the crown prince.
