"If the prince wants to repay the imperial concubine, why wait until the next day? The imperial concubine dotes on the three princesses most. If the prince cancels the engagement, the imperial concubine will be happy." clove said.
Gusu Duanyu looked up at clove when he heard the speech. The imperial concubine sent clove to save herself. It's fake to convince herself that it's true! The imperial concubine is a combination of grace and power!
"The three Princess elves are so cute that I can't promise," said Gusu Duanyu after taking a cup of tea.
Lilac didn't expect that she couldn't convince Gusu Duanyu. At that time, she thought that Gusu Duanyu was very persuasive. Unexpectedly, it was so difficult to deal with. No wonder the imperial concubine would let herself appear at the last moment. If she shot too early, maybe Gusu Duanyu would doubt herself!
"Since crown prince Duan Yu didn't want the slave maid to return to life!" clove turned and walked outside. Before walking a few steps, there came Gusu Duan Yu's words behind her.
"Lilac girl went back and told the imperial concubine that Duan Yu of Suzhou would like to join hands with the imperial concubine. As long as the imperial concubine doesn't interfere in the marriage of the three princesses, Duan Yu of Suzhou will never offend Chen one day."
Clove paused slightly, silently wrote down Gusu Duan Yu's words, and went out of Yikun palace.
Qingyan Palace
Huilin is taking off her makeup for Leng Qingyan. She combs her hair bit by bit with an ivory comb. Lilac suddenly turns in from the window, which startles Huilin.
"Niang, you guessed right. Xi mufei really found someone to assassinate Gusu Duanyu. The slave and maid told him according to the Niang's instructions, but he was unwilling to give up and asked the slave and maid to bring a word to the Niang."
"What did he ask you to bring to the palace?" Leng Qingyan asked, looking at lilac.
"He said that as long as the empress did not interfere in the marriage of the three princesses, he would be willing to join hands with the empress. He also said that Suzhou has a state, and he would never offend Chen one day." clove said what Duan Yu said in Suzhou.
Gusu Duanyu is willing to betray the queen for Xiyue. Does he really like Xiyue! But Xi Yue and Gusu Duanyu met only a few times. Although they had a husband and wife relationship, Gusu Duanyu didn't look like a long-term lover!
Leng Qingyan was moved by what Gusu Duanyu said. She was wondering whether to agree to Gusu Duanyu's conditions. Leng Qingfeng was the only person that Xi Yue could marry Leng Renbo. However, if Xi Yue married Gusu Duanyu and one day Gusu Duanyu became emperor, she would help more than a little.
"Mother..."
"The palace knows what you want to say. It has its own considerations!" Leng Qingyan glanced at clove and said.
Huilin listened to Leng Qingyan's conversation with clove. She sympathized with the three princesses she had never met. She wanted to abandon the three Princesses for power.
What kind of person is the master you follow! Isn't the third princess the niece of the master?
"Huilin!" Leng Qingyan raised her eyes and called Huilin. Huiling looked at Leng Qingyan and asked, "what's your mother's order?"
"The palace is a little tired. You don't need to dress up. You should go down early to have a rest."
"Yes!" Huilin retreated.
Leng Qingyan looked at lilac again and asked, "do you think this palace is too inflexible?"
"I dare not question my mother's decision!" Lilac looked down at the ground.
"Every step of the palace is to avenge my sister. Do you remember the sachet given by the queen to Princess Wu last time?"
"... remember," said lilac.
"The as like as two peas and the other sisters who were injured in this palace sent the same thing, this palace suspected that this is the one who made the palace of Yi Kun, and this palace felt very fond of Western Yue, but this palace had no other choice. In addition to the Duan Yu's suing, there was no other way for this palace."
"Empress, but the three princesses..." clove opened her mouth to say that Xiyue was innocent, but she couldn't say it.
"The palace made use of Xiyue. Yes, in order to find out the truth of that year and find the man behind the scenes, the palace will not hesitate."
"Madam, how sad would the third princess be if she knew you did this? She trusted her so much..."
"Xiyue will understand the pain of the palace!" Leng Qingyan said.
Clove didn't speak any more. She added a cup of tea to Leng Qingyan and withdrew.
Leng Qingyan was lying alone on the bed, looking at the night outside with his eyes open. The night had just begun.
Xiyue! Forgive aunt! Aunt is also a last resort!
Ci'an Palace
After days of treatment by the imperial doctor, the Empress Dowager's disease finally improved. Duanxian imperial concubine pressed her shoulder.
"Aunt, duan'er heard that your majesty put the imperial concubine under house arrest yesterday. Do you know this?"
The Empress Dowager's face sank. Yesterday, she heard the queen say that this cold and desolate Yan did such things without face behind her Majesty's back. As a noble princess, she even lingered outside with men, that is, the emperor was kind. If the former Emperor changed, where would she live.
"Ai Jia heard about it!" the Empress Dowager took a sip of Longjing before the rain offered by the little maid in waiting.
"Aunt, why do you think your majesty is so kind to concubine Leng? People will not forgive you easily for such a thing as carrying a husband and stealing a Han! You have to take care of it. You can't let your majesty let concubine Leng go so easily." concubine Duanxian slowed down and her voice was jealous.
She didn't understand. The cold Yan did such a thing behind his Majesty's back. His majesty just banned her. It wouldn't be so easy to forgive ordinary people! How did your majesty swallow the breath when a woman did such a shameless thing? Duanxian imperial concubine couldn't bear to live in her heart. Doesn't her majesty care about being wearing a green hat!
"The mourning family had a bad relationship with the emperor some time ago because of Princess Wu. If the mourning family interfered with it again, the emperor was afraid to hate the mourning family." the Empress Dowager slowly put down the tea cup and held the Buddha beads in her hand.
"Aunt, you are your Majesty's own mother. A filial person like your majesty will not make trouble with you for women. Don't you give in to what you like?" said Duanxian concubine rourourou.
The Empress Dowager thought that Princess Duanxian was right! I opposed the emperor to marry Princess Wu at the beginning. Although the emperor refused to agree, he has not given Princess Wu the title up to now! The emperor always kept her words in his heart.
"Duan'er is right. Whatever happens to the mourning family is your Majesty's own e Niang. Your majesty will still take care of the mourning family no matter how much you like those women. Then... The mourning family will go back to your majesty to talk about it. Surely your majesty can't let her go!"
"Yes, aunt, you should take out the majesty of the Empress Dowager. You can't let Leng Guifei be arrogant anymore."
With a smile on her face, Princess Duanxian stopped her movements and went to the seat next to the Empress Dowager. The cushion was not hot. The Empress Dowager suddenly asked, "you said you have been in the palace for so long. Why don't you worry about giving birth to your majesty a son and a half? Those official women who have just entered the palace are pregnant. Why haven't you heard from your stomach?"
