The queen was stunned by Su Bai's beating.
The husband and wife always want to save face. When the late emperor was around, Su Bai always pretended to be kind. How could he do such a thing
"Your Majesty," the queen said in shock, "what do you mean?!"
"You don't know what I mean? You have tried your best to get the crown prince, and you want me to tell you?!"
"Your Majesty was wronged!" The queen knelt on the ground and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, my concubine has shared weal and woe with you for many years. Don't your majesty know what kind of temperament your concubine has? If you want to seek the crown prince, your concubine has already done it. Why bother?" Wait until now? Your Majesty, you really misunderstood my concubine!"
"Whether I misunderstood or not, I know very well." The emperor sneered and said, "I tell you, you have to find a way to withdraw the book that is up to you! If you can't do it, don't blame me for being merciless!"
Su Bai's words made the Queen's heart skip a beat. After Su Bai left, the queen sent someone to deliver the letter immediately. Wei Lan had already sent someone to monitor the queen, and as soon as the queen's letter came out, Wei Lan knew the news that the queen had sent the letter to Jiang's house, and the same person ordered: "People don't participate in it tomorrow."
Xie Zichen was wearing a memorial at the side, and when he heard what Wei Lan said, he couldn't help laughing out loud: "You are putting the queen on the fire."
"If I don't put her on the fire, Su Bai will put me on the fire."
Wei Lan leaned towards Xie Zichen and blinked: "Does Shang Shuling Xie want to serve the country loyally and help His Majesty eradicate such evil sycophants?"
Xie Zichen smiled, put down his pen, and hugged Wei Lan in his arms: "Wei Xiang is overwhelmed by the country and the city, and I am willing to be a rebellious minister and thief for Wei. I hope that Wei Xiang will not forget to be affectionate and give some sweetness appropriately."
"It's easy to talk about," Wei Lan threw Xie Zichen to the ground, and said with a smile, "I'm never stingy about this kind of thing."
On the second day, Su Bai was ready to be annoyed to death by Wei Lan's people, but after going to court, Wei Lan's people really didn't hand in any papers. This made Su Bai more sure of the relationship between Wei Lan and the queen, and he had more suspicions about the queen.
Wei Lan did this a few times, and the relationship between the queen and the emperor became more and more tense. Three months later, the royal concubine was about to give birth. At this time, the relationship between Su Bai and the queen had reached a freezing point. Wang Xi came to the door, looking for Wei Lan.
"A Xi came to the door in person, I'm afraid she has something important to do." Wei Lan poured tea for Wang Xi, Wang Xi smiled, nodded and said: "I really have something to ask for when I come to the door."
"Alan and His Majesty are currently arguing fiercely. My sister is about to give birth. I'm here to ask for a peace talisman with Alan."
Wei Lan understood what Wang Xi meant. After thinking for a while, she slowly said: "If the concubine Wang Guifei gives birth safely, then I promise, I won't do anything."
"What does Ah Lan mean when he says An'an?"
Wei Lan smiled, with a playful look in her eyes: "I said safe and sound, the seventh son doesn't know?"
Wang Xi no longer pretended to be stupid, and looked up at Wei Lan with serious eyes: "The Wang family can't participate in the battle for the throne, can it?"
"Axi," Wei Lan raised the tea bowl, looked at the green soup, and slowly said: "Wang's family indulges in the mountains and rivers, isn't it good? There is already a Xie Guifei in the palace."
If it wasn't because the Wei family didn't have a suitable daughter, there must be a Wei Guifei. It's just that the Wei family doesn't have one, so the best person Wei Lan can choose is the daughter of the Xie family.
Su Bai can't be the emperor for too long, the money in her hand can't last until next year, if Su Bai is still the emperor next year, then Qingzhou's army will really have to return it to Su Bai. But Wei Lan has worked so hard for so many years, how could she give it up to others
Now that Su Bai has a young son, and the youngest son is in power, she must find a queen mother who is in the same camp as her, so that she can make great achievements in the future.
But she would never tell Wang Xi about these plans, and Wang Xi only thought that Wei Lan wanted to intervene in the prince's dispute. He sighed, and it was already his decision to show affection to Xie Zichen at the beginning. When the Wei and Xie families joined forces, the Wang family had to avoid their edge,
He nodded and sighed: "Alright. As long as my sister can give birth safely, that's fine."
"That's natural," Wei Lan held up the tea bowl, as if celebrating, and said gently: "Auspicious people have their own appearance."
With Wei Lan's promise, the Wang family felt relieved, and Wei Lan also asked the people in the palace to look at Wang Guifei and not let others interfere.
Concubine Wang Guifei successfully gave birth to a prince. On the day of delivery, Su Bai held the child and excitedly said that he would make him the crown prince.
This word quickly spread throughout the palace, and after the queen heard about it, she locked Weiyang Palace for an entire afternoon. At night, Wei Lan received a letter.
The letter written by the queen was enough to prove the sincerity of the queen. Wei Lan thought for a while, and the next day, she followed what the letter said and went to the restaurant box. Once inside, Wei Lan saw a woman wearing a cloak, sitting there .
She seemed to have been waiting for a long time, Wei Lan smiled, knowing that after so long, this big fish finally took the bait.
"Your Majesty." Wei Lan pretended not to know anything, and said respectfully, "My Lady invited Wei Lan to come here, what's your business?"
"What's your business? Isn't Prime Minister Wei the clearest?" The queen lifted the cap of her cloak and said slowly: "Sis. Wei forced me to come here, but still ask me what's my business?"
"What are you doing to make the empress gnash her teeth like this?"
"Ming people don't speak dark words!" The queen said directly: "You just want to force me to form an alliance with you. I can promise you. If you have any demands, just say it!"
"I hope that your empress can promise me that after the prince ascends the throne, the money for the soldiers in Qingzhou and Jingzhou will be the same as that of other troops, and will come from the treasury."
"Okay." The queen responded decisively. Now that Concubine Wang has been confirmed as a prince, Concubine Wang is of noble birth and is deeply loved by the Emperor, if she doesn't do anything, it may be too late.
Wei Lan nodded, and said calmly: "The queen can set a time, when the time comes, Wei Lan is willing to cooperate with the queen."
As she said that, Wei Lan handed a pack of poison to the queen: "This medicine is colorless and tasteless, and it will kill you five hours after it touches your lips. But my mother Yi ordered me to enter the palace, and I will lead my troops to control it for my mother." Stay in the palace situation."
"Forbidden Army in the Palace..."
"After His Majesty's death, His Majesty's Imperial Guard will directly obey your orders, and the Xie family's children will not participate. After I lead the troops in, I will confront the soldiers of the Wang family and protect Your Majesty. You don't have to worry about your Majesty."
"Okay." The queen nodded, raised her head and said, "My son will be the emperor, right?"
"His Royal Highness, the Great Chu's destined Majesty."
Hearing this, the queen nodded, raised her hat, and left.
Wei Lan was very happy when the matter was done. On the way back, everyone could see her good mood. Xie Zichen couldn't help feeling a little strange: "Who did you go to see?"
"Empress." Wei Lan said, Xie Zichen suddenly raised his head. Even though he guessed that it would be a matter of time before the Queen came to find Wei Lan, he never expected it to come so soon.
Wei Lan has always been so active in showing favor to the Queen, Su Bai will naturally regard Wei Lan as the Queen's person, as long as Su Bai thinks so, whether Wei Lan is really the Queen's person is not that important. The queen is destined to be tied to the thief ship by Wei Lan, sooner or later.
The emperor passed on his dislike of Wei Lan to the queen, and the queen could clearly feel that her position was in jeopardy. At this time, she seemed to have no better choice than joining forces with Wei Lan.
"Are you really going to let the eldest prince ascend the throne?" Xie Zichen frowned: "Then the Jiang family..."
"How about Concubine Xie, is she reliable?" Wei Lan changed the subject, Xie Zichen was stunned, but he understood Wei Lan's meaning, nodded and said: "Yes."
When the two were discussing, Di Jie had already entered winter.
The cold wind blew past, inside the imperial city, Rong Hua vomited blood in small mouths.
"Your Highness," counselor Cui Jie worried, "I'm afraid your body won't be able to hold on any longer."
"I know." Rong Hua smiled, with a cold light in his eyes.
"Shi Xuan killed?"
"Kill it." Cui Jie said respectfully: "It's almost cleaned up now."
"Get ready," Rong Hua looked to the south, and said slowly, "This year's food is not enough."
"But Your Highness..." Cui Jie hesitated: "I heard that Wei Lan trained the army..."
"It doesn't matter." Rong Hua recalled the news from the south, with sarcasm in his eyes: "In a few months, that dog emperor should die. At that time, there will be chaos in Great Chu. I asked Wang Xi to cooperate with me, at least to get Qingzhou and Jingzhou."
"But Huan Heng..."
"Huan Heng?" Rong Hua sneered, "Huan Heng won't help her."
"Why is Your Highness so sure?"
Rong Hua didn't speak, he asked someone to bring a pen and paper, and wrote a letter to Huan Heng.
While writing, he said: "If one day, you find out that the brother you have always admired is actually a woman. She lied to you for so many years, and then married another man, what would you do?"
Cui Jie was stunned, Rong Hua wrote the letter, and slowly said: "No, what will Huan Heng do when we should think about it? A person with his temper has nothing but two choices."
"Either Wei Lan returns to him, or Wei Lan dies, the woman he loves, he can't tolerate other people's hands."
"Your Highness..." The cold wind whizzed by, blowing Cui Jie's words into the wind, with his shock: "You mean, Wei Lan, is actually a woman..."
Ronghua smiled slightly, and the smile on Xiuya's face was a bit strangely gorgeous: "What do you think?"
He was not surprised that such a beautiful person was a woman.
Dark clouds gathered outside, fearing that it was going to snow. Rong Hua looked at the sky and murmured: "I still like the south."
I like the sky in the south and the people in the south. One day, he will have everything he likes.
If he is still alive.
