Chapter 424

After Empress Shen came over from Princess Anning, she looked for the emperor.

"The Eldest Princess' tone is not very good, she seems to have a lot of complaints about us, but the Eldest Princess promised to choose a date to get married, but she only asked that the emperor can go to give the marriage on the day of the wedding." Empress Shen told the emperor without any concealment.

Lu Zhan put down his official duties, "It's simple. The late emperor is my benefactor, and the eldest princess is the first eldest daughter of the late emperor. As long as her request is not excessive, I will agree to it."

That's the thing to do.

Empress Shen said: "The emperor is magnanimous, and my concubines admire him."

Lu Zhan raised his eyes, "Does the queen have anything else to do?"

"The emperor and the concubine Xian have been in love for many years, and the concubines also watched the emperor and the concubine Xian go all the way." Empress Shen sighed quietly: "The emperor and the concubine Xian have come to this, it is really emotional."

Lu Zhan frowned, "The queen wants to say something, but please speak directly."

"The concubine knows that the emperor still has a virtuous concubine in his heart, so I might as well run for the emperor and persuade the concubine to return to the palace." Empress Shen raised her eyes, revealing a somewhat sincere look.

Lu Zhan's eyes were full of indifference, "If I want her to return to the palace, there are thousands of ways, so I won't let the queen worry about it."

Empress Shen sighed lightly, "Why is it necessary, Your Majesty, is it important to have a sweetheart for a while?"

Lu Zhan opened the memorial casually, "Everyone knows what kind of person the other party is. The queen doesn't need to pretend to be a big-tailed wolf in front of me."

Empress Shen said nothing more.

Empress Shen said to Concubine Qi in private: "Looking at the emperor's appearance, it seems that he is still angry with Concubine Xian. Both of them are unwilling to bow their heads. It is my sister's opportunity. My sister treats the emperor warmly every day. I want to come In time, I will be able to replace the concubine Xian."

Qi Yaoyao heard the words and said: "This is because the empress does not tell me, I also know it, right now it is not a question of not being favored, but a question of whether to kill the king or not."

Empress Shen said: "I see that the Eldest Princess seems to have a lot of resentment towards the Emperor, maybe the Eldest Princess will do something to the Emperor during the wedding, but it doesn't need to be so troublesome."

"Eldest Princess An Ning?" Qi Yaoyao said: "Although I have never met this eldest princess, I have heard people in the palace say that this eldest princess has a simple mind, I am afraid that the possibility of success is not high."

"The emperor knows some martial arts. Princess Anning is not the emperor's opponent. It is better to be someone whom the emperor trusts."

Empress Shen smiled deeply, "Isn't my sister very trusted by the emperor now?"

"The concubine has said that if the concubine stays, she can still serve as an internal response to my aunt and cousin. This person can only be Concubine Zhen Xian." Concubine Qi said: "No matter how strong a martial arts person is, he will not be defensive against his sweetheart, empress Bewitching the concubine Xian to poison the emperor, this move must be foolproof."

As long as Concubine Xian poisoned the emperor, if the emperor died, it would be easy to say.

If the emperor hadn't died, the past love between the two would be completely wiped out because of the concubine Xian's regicide, and then it would be time for her to replace the concubine Xian.

Although the princess of the previous dynasty was her aunt, and her cousin Du Zijing was the son of her aunt and the deposed prince, after all, it was so difficult to overthrow the new dynasty.

Even my aunt knew it was difficult, so she asked the prince to borrow a seed.

Knowing that the new emperor's methods are fierce, if there is no accident, they will never have the chance to be in power throughout their lives.

Therefore, we can only separate the concubine Xian and the new emperor against each other, and use the concubine Xian to poison the new emperor.

If it can be done, she will follow her aunt and cousin to become a princess and empress.

If it fails, it's not a bad idea to be Lu Zhan's favorite concubine in the name of Qi's daughter.

People are subject to change, Qi Yaoyao is young, but she also knows how to weigh the pros and cons.

Empress Shen can naturally see through her small thoughts, and can't help but think to herself that Concubine Qi is really too naive.

Du's mother and son are not fools, and the new emperor is even more of a human being.

From the day Qi Yaoyao entered the palace, she was destined to be a chess piece of the Du family, and she still wanted to betray her?

Empress Shen smiled without saying a word, and went out of the palace to look for Zhen Baozhu in the name of a girl from the Liang family.

"The eldest princess will get married in a month or so. I remember that Concubine Xian and the eldest princess were close friends in the past, so don't forget to go and congratulate them." Empress Shen gave Zhen Baozhu an invitation.

Zhen Baozhu glanced at him, "Zhang Yuan is my adopted brother, and when my adopted brother gets married, I will naturally go."

What she meant was that she would not enter the palace to attend the feast, but would only go as Zhang Yuan's family.

"At that time, the emperor will personally go to see off the relatives." Empress Shen said: "At that time, Concubine Xian will say a few soft words to the emperor, and this matter will be over, Concubine Xian will still be Concubine Xian."

Zhen Baozhu leaned forward, "The emperor asked you to say that."

Empress Shen shook her head.

Zhen Baozhu said again: "Then I have nothing to talk to him about."

Empress Shen wondered: "One or two of you are so stubborn, and neither of you is willing to bow your head. Doesn't it mean that you have never been able to reconcile, and on the contrary, it is easier for outsiders."

"Could it be that the queen hopes that I won't be favored?" Zhen Baozhu looked at Queen Shen in surprise, "I still remember the thing about the queen wooing Concubine Qi to suppress me earlier, I thought the queen is the happiest now."

Shen Yue didn't feel embarrassed either.

"Concubine Xian also said that it happened in the past. In the past, my position as empress was shaky, and I always had to find a backer. My mother-in-law, the Empress Dowager, was my backer at that time. No matter what I thought in my heart, I always wanted to show favor to Concubine Qi. And treated Concubine Xian coldly."

"Nowadays Concubine Qi is becoming more and more favored, and the Empress Dowager is increasingly displeased with me. I think it would be better for this palace to have some virtuous concubines enter the palace to share some of Concubine Qi's favor."

This sounds plausible.

If Zhen Baozhu didn't know about the Du family's affairs, he might have believed what Empress Shen said.

"Whether Concubine Xian believes it or not, this is what I mean." Empress Shen said, "The hearts of men are changing day by day these days. If Concubine Xian doesn't seize this opportunity to reconcile the old relationship with the Emperor, I'm afraid it will get better and worse in the future. The harder it is."

"Besides, Concubine Xian doesn't think about herself, she also has to think about her family. Someone in the palace is ultimately beneficial to the family. You should think about it carefully."

Empress Shen didn't sit down much, "There are still many things in the palace waiting for me to deal with, so I left."

Zhen Baozhu was thoughtful, the queen was about to act.

Not long after, Chunlan came over and put a white pill in front of Zhen Baozhu.

"The people around the empress bought the servants and let the servants secretly take this to the emperor on the day of the eldest princess's wedding, saying that it is an aphrodisiac. Then the emperor and concubine Xian will definitely reconcile." Chunlan looked at the white pill. , a little speechless, "The servant showed it to the doctor, and the doctor said it was poison."

"The empress and the people around her think that Concubine Xian and I are fools, and would do such a thing that would be copied and beheaded by everyone?"

Zhen Baozhu didn't care, "The empress is not a fool, how could she not know such a simple truth, I think the empress just came to us for a formality."

"Anyway, the Empress is really becoming more and more incomprehensible."

"However, I also know that they are probably going to take action. You will accompany me to Kou's house in a while."
