Chapter 31： royal secrets

The old housekeeper felt sad: "The most urgent thing is to think of a way, where can I find a suitable pearl to replace it."

The Shaodong family’s eyes dimmed, and he twitched his mouth with a wry smile: “East pearls the size of longan are unique to the East China Sea. You can’t get them in the East China Sea, and you can’t find pearls of the same size in other places.”

The old housekeeper comforted in a gentle voice: "Young master, don't worry, there is no unparalleled road. There is still one month until the Empress's fortieth birthday, and there may be a turning point."

"If you ask me, that noble gentleman is a disaster. Since he came to our Fengqi country, the empress has become more and more stupid."

The Shaodong family is young and full of vigor, and the more they talk, the angrier they become, and the topic gets further and further away.

Empress?

Fortieth birthday!

In the wing room, one old and one young were depressed and uneasy. The little kingfisher stood on the top of the tree and listened to the conversation between the two without a word. The more he listened, the more excited he became. He couldn't wait to share the news with his master through voice transmission. .

"Master, I have heard some secret information about the royal family, which will help you sell pearls."

"tell me the story."

Su Qingluo was sitting on the carriage with Xiaotuanzi in his arms at the moment, walking towards Jubaozhai.

She has always been very helpless towards the little kingfisher who is full of gossip, and she doesn't control it much on weekdays, allowing it to play freely. Now that she heard that it was related to selling pearls, she became a little interested.

"The matter here is complicated. It involves royal secrets, and ordinary people dare not say it easily."

The little kingfisher was floating in the treetops, its dark eyes flashed cunningly: "That's me, always think of the master, and when I hear useful information, I will tell you immediately."

Su Qingluo rubbed the center of her eyebrows lightly, feeling helpless against its boasting: "Hurry up, Jubaozhai is coming soon, don't delay selling pearls."

"The source still has to start with the empress."

The little kingfisher cheered up, cleared his throat, and immediately began to speak: "Four years ago, in the name of celebrating his birthday, Beiming Kingdom presented a stunning young man. The empress Longxin was very happy, and she was named noble and loved very much. "

"The man was so fascinated by the Empress that she lost her head, didn't think about government affairs, and played songs every night. She didn't hesitate to conceive a dragon seed at the age of thirty-six. She wanted to give birth to a princess for him, and made his own daughter a princess."

"The three empresses born in the early years of the empress have grown up and have the heart to fight for the throne. How can we allow more incidents to spoil their good deeds."

"When the Empress was eight months pregnant, she was poisoned by the spies placed in the palace by the Eldest Empress. Fortunately, she survived, resulting in premature labor and the birth of a little prince."

"The empress was furious. She disposed of the elder princess and imprisoned her in the clan mansion. However, the little prince was poisoned in her mother's womb, and her life was in danger when she was born. The empress felt sorry for her youngest son, so she hired famous doctors for him and searched everywhere for medicine."

"It's also for this reason that she feels guilty towards your noble lord, and favors him even more. She spends huge sums of money to build a luxurious courtyard for him, and rewards him constantly."

"This year's 40th birthday is even more against the ancestral system. I custom-made a dress of the same style as myself, and took him to attend the birthday feast of envoys from various countries."

"The female emperor's brain is flooded. She sings every night and ignores the government. Could it be that she was tricked by Beiming Kingdom and sent a vixen to confuse people's hearts."

The more Su Qingluo listened, the heavier her heart became. She was not a little girl who didn't understand the world. She listened to the strings and knew the music well, and was very worried about the empress's growing incompetence.

"That's right, there are also discussions among the ministers in the court, saying that your lord is a spy of the Beiming Kingdom, who relies on his beauty to confuse the empress and bring disaster to the court."

The little kingfisher felt the same way: "There was a minister in the court who advised the empress to execute the noble monarch, but the empress became furious and ordered the minister to be executed, and the family was ransacked."

"well!"

Su Qingluo sighed sadly: "The empress is fatuous and tyrannical. If the country is weak, the world will be in chaos sooner or later."

"I hope that day will come later, at least until the master grows up and has the ability to protect his relatives." The little kingfisher thought secretly.
