famous eldest daughter

Chapter 1220 Helpless
After Mammy finished speaking, Gu Yuqing slowly took a sip of tea, "What Mammy said makes sense, but she seems to have made a mistake. I am not the queen, so..."

He paused briefly, glanced at Chu Xinyao, and continued: "Mommy found the wrong person."

Grandma suddenly... This Gu Yuqing is really difficult to deal with.

Gritting her teeth silently, she smiled and said, "Miss Gu, what are you talking about? The marriage contract between Miss Gu and His Majesty was made by the late emperor, how can she not be the queen!"

Gu Yuqing smiled and said, "It is true that the engagement between His Majesty and I was made by the late Emperor, but I am indeed not the Queen. Now, His Majesty is also eagerly looking for a candidate for the Queen!"

As soon as Gu Yuqing finished speaking, Chu Xinyao stood up in excitement, "Are you serious?"

Gu Yuqing nodded, "Why are you lying to me! So, whether you are trying to show off your power or others, you are looking in the wrong place!"

Mammy, who has seen countless people, took a deep look at Gu Yuqing, her mind was spinning with thoughts, and she said in a flash: "In this case, is Miss Gu willing to give up this position?"

With suspicion in his eyes, he looked at Gu Yuqing for a moment.

The anger on Chu Xinyao's face had long since dissipated, and she just looked straight at Gu Yuqing.

Gu Yuqing chuckled, "Why is this so unwilling? The princess grew up in the palace. Does the princess really think that the queen is as glorious as others see her?"

Chu Xinyao pinched the silk handkerchief in her hand, her hands trembling with excitement.

Just because of Gu Yuqing's engagement with the emperor, she settled for the next best thing and only asked for a concubine position.

I just think that as time goes by, I will be in love, and the future will be long.

But now... if it is true as Gu Yuqing said, Gu Yuqing is not the queen, then of course she will fight for the queen's position.

"Then you still want to marry His Majesty!" Holding the silk handkerchief, Chu Xinyao's eyes sparkled.

Gu Yuqing said: "I will marry Xiao Yu!"

Chu Xinyao... "You have a marriage contract and marry His Majesty, but you don't want to be the queen? How can I trust you?"

Gu Yuqing immediately laughed: "I'm not forcing you to believe me. Believe it or not, it's up to you."

After saying that, Gu Yuqing stood up and said, "I can only tell you two so much. As for whether you believe it or not and what you want to do, it's none of my business. You guys have also seen me. My house is busy, so it's not my business." Stay longer, please!"

Even if Gu Yuqing didn't issue an order to expel the guests, Chu Xinyao wouldn't be able to sit down.

After leaving the Chinan Marquis Mansion with worries on her mind, Chu Xinyao held her grandma's hand in the carriage, with a pink and anxious look on her face, "Mammy, what should I do?"

"Princess, don't be anxious. It's better to let the envoy inquire about this matter before making a decision."

Chu Xinyao nodded heavily, her eyes full of thoughts, she was silent for a moment, and then said: "Do you think what she said is true?"

Mammy shook her head, "It's hard to say. This Gu Yuqing is different from ordinary boudoirs, so naturally it cannot be analyzed according to common sense."

"Then if what she said is true, do you think I have a good chance of becoming the queen?" Her crimson cheeks were filled with shyness, but she couldn't wait.

The nanny smiled lightly, and stroked Chu Xinyao's black hair kindly, "Is that why the princess wants to be a queen?"

Chu Xinyao was stunned, "Mom, you don't want me to be the queen? There is no woman in the world who can be more glorious than the queen!"

Her eyes were full of hope, but then quickly dimmed, "If I could become the queen, my mother would no longer have to live in the cold palace. With my support, how could Concubine Rong dare to trample on my mother like that?"

When Chu Xinyao mentioned her mother, a look of pain appeared on her face.

"So, even though I knew that this marriage was just a plaything for my father to please their emperor, I still tried my best to come. Mammy, you know, only when I am strong can my queen mother live a good life."

Mammy's eyes were filled with tears, "If your Majesty knew the princess's feelings, I don't know how she would be moved!"

"So, mama, you must help me, I can't fail!" Chu Xinyao's face was full of determination.

"I know this, otherwise, the princess would not have come to the Chinan Marquis Mansion to cause such a scene!"

Chu Xinyao was startled and turned to smile bitterly, "Do you know, grandma?"

Mammy stroked Chu Xinyao's hair lovingly, "If it wasn't to tell the ladies and ladies all over the capital that you were enemies with Gu Yuqing, if it wasn't to create a domineering but ignorant image, why would the princess come to Chinanhou? The government is begging for hardship."

The emperor's harem must be home to three thousand beauties.

Gu Yuqing and Xiao Yu have been in love for a long time, and they must be jealous and intolerable by others. If Chu Xinyao can fall out with Gu Yuqing before entering the palace, at least when she enters the palace, those who hate Gu Yuqing will not embarrass her for the time being.

She also deliberately creates a domineering and ignorant appearance, which makes people feel that she is not an opponent and will not put a lot of thought into her.

In this way, coupled with her status as a foreign princess, she can at least be safe for a while after entering the palace.

Otherwise, she had come all the way here, with no relatives or roots to speak of, and her mother country was weak. It would be strange if she didn't die in a foreign land.

She held Chu Xinyao's hand distressedly and said, "It's hard for the princess!"

Chu Xinyao shook her head, "As long as my mother can survive until the day I succeed, everything will be worth it."

While he was talking, he had already arrived at the post house.

After settling Chu Xinyao, Mammy immediately found an envoy to secretly investigate the selection of the queen.

The envoy will execute it immediately.

At this time, Xiao Yu, who was deep in thought in the Nourishing Heart Hall, was suddenly interrupted by the sound of the door creaking open.

Looking around, he saw Ming Lu running in with a hurried look, "Your Majesty, this servant is leaving the palace."

Seeing how impatient he was, Xiao Yu glanced at him, took a sip of the tea in front of him, and said, "Why are you leaving the palace?"

Ming Lu said mysteriously: "I had a dream. I dreamed that there was a piece of peerless jade buried under the pavilion at the top of Cuiping Mountain. The god in the dream said that I must dig out this jade today, otherwise, I will have to dig it out." A bloody disaster."

What Ming Lu said was so convincing that if Xiao Yu hadn't known him well, he would have almost been deceived.

"Don't you just want to see Jixiang, so you don't need to invent a bloody disaster to curse yourself? You also dreamed of gods, why didn't you dream..."

As he was talking about Luo Minglu, Xiao Yu's tone suddenly stopped, and he froze for a moment. His eyes looked at Minglu with an extraordinarily bright light.

"Sweet dreams, sweet dreams, sweet dreams!"

He originally made up a lie to deceive Xiao Yu, but Xiao Yu exposed it with one word. Ming Lu was thinking quickly about how to deny it and insist that it was just a dream. Xiao Yu's sudden reaction shocked Ming Lu.

Xiao Yu stared in one direction, his eyes were burning with eager light.

Ming Lu stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Xiao Yu's eyes, "Your Highness, are you okay?"

Xiao Yu laughed, patted the table and said, "Ming Lu, go and ask the chamberlain to call all the Kyoto officials for me!"
