"I know you are worried about me, but I think this is a great opportunity." Shen Xihe also insisted on his opinion.
She deliberately insulted Concubine Rong in order to provoke His Majesty's anger, which led to Concubine Shu's instigation, making His Majesty feel that she should be taught a lesson, prompting His Majesty to take action against her this time. She wanted to take this opportunity to give His Majesty a head-on blow.
It was unprecedented for her to give up the situation that she had initiated so easily. Shen Xihe did not like the feeling of being interfered with.
"I know what you are thinking." Xiao Huayong also tried to persuade her, "From the beginning to the end, you have never given up. You want to transfer His Majesty's fear to yourself. This is the reason why you have painstakingly set up the plan."
If Shen Xihe causes His Majesty's men to be wiped out this time, His Majesty will certainly regard Shen Xihe as a thorn in his side, and I'm afraid he won't have the mind to slowly test himself. The person in the East Palace who makes His Majesty most uneasy is Shen Xihe.
With a little more effort, Shen Xihe could completely expose her original thoughts in front of His Majesty. She chose herself because her life span was limited. Her ambition was to become the most honorable owner of this palace with her own direct bloodline.
The one who makes the decision for the people of Xiao family's bloodline who rule the world is her, the regent queen dowager.
This is a serious offense to Your Majesty!
"Your Majesty's jealousy of me will not increase or decrease because of this incident." Shen Xihe was not afraid of Emperor Youning's jealousy, because her surname was Shen, and she had been a taboo to Emperor Youning all her life. It was impossible for the Shen family and His Majesty to coexist.
Therefore, she didn't care how His Majesty viewed her, whether he regarded her as a thorn in his side or ignored her. What Shen Xihe wanted was to maximize their benefits.
"His Majesty is suspicious of you. Even if you avoid him every time and he can't get any evidence, he still won't let down his guard. With His Majesty watching, you will inevitably be hindered everywhere." Shen Xihe spoke clearly, "If you want him to really believe that you are not hiding your strength, this is the best way. Let him know that I married you because you are easy to control. He also saw that I am so powerful. Since I gambled my whole life, I must have proved that you are weak. In this way, he can be on the lowest alert against you."
"I don't need you to cover up for me!" Xiao Huayong said in a deep voice, "I'm not afraid of falling out with him, but I'm covering it up for the sake of convenience. If this advantage requires you to disregard your own safety, then don't take it!"
"Your Highness!" Shen Xihe called Xiao Huayong coldly, "Don't let your emotions get the better of you."
Xiao Huayong looked at her suddenly, his eyes complex and stubborn: "Do you think that I am so willful and reckless, and it is not the temperament of a person who accomplishes great things? I have never thought about becoming the master of the world from the beginning to the end. Two years ago, I was ready to cure the poison of curiosity. I planned these things just because I felt that I had to seek justice for the people who gave birth to me."
Yes, he had never thought about becoming an emperor until he met Shen Xihe.
He cultivated these forces so that if he died young one day, he could fulfill his mission as a son of man. If he was lucky enough to get the antidote, he would not be controlled by others. Being the master of the world was never in his plan.
It was after he met Shen Xihe that he began to plan his power in the court step by step. This is why he did not have strong power in the court and His Majesty never doubted him. He did not make any unusual moves at all, so why would His Majesty have any suspicion
