Concubine Xuan frowned, unable to understand Concubine Lan's words.
"Why can't I make the emperor feel at ease? I have served in the palace till now, and I ask myself to do everything with my heart. Otherwise, how could the emperor raise the third prince to me?"
"Whether you really don't know or you are pretending not to know, I am entrusted to you to raise him just because your identity and knowledge are enough to raise the prince and teach him well, not because of you as a person, but you think this is the emperor's tacit approval. You are vying for the position of queen. Isn't the matter of the first queen not enough for you to see clearly? If you become the queen, the emperor will be on guard against you." Concubine Lan stood up angrily, looking at it with a bit of hatred for iron. With Concubine Xuan.
It's not that Concubine Xuan has never thought about this, but she doesn't know how to do it, and neither does her brother. She will also find ways to prove the Pei family's loyalty.
If she can become the queen, it will be the glory of the family, and her father Izumoshita Yutomo will be proud of her.
"Jiang Jinxin, a humble maid, has made it this far. Why should I be below her? The emperor is a wise king and will not misunderstand the loyalty of my Pei family." Concubine Xuan turned her head away, unwilling to look at Concubine Lan.
After hearing this, Concubine Lan sighed helplessly. Her words tonight were in vain.
"In this case, it's me who is meddling in other people's business." Concubine Lan put down her cup and was unwilling to say anything more, but before leaving, she added, "Don't get involved with the Seventh Princess, otherwise your life as Concubine Xuan will be ruined. , it’s over.”
After saying that, he left.
Concubine Xuan gritted her teeth and stood up. Before she could say anything, Concubine Lan walked out the door.
"Why should she teach me a lesson? Why!"
Concubine Lan wants to help her. What charm does Jiang Jinxin have?
Didn't she give you some benefits at the very beginning? Those benefits are nothing. As time goes by, even without her, the emperor will still reward them.
The maid hurriedly came in after hearing this.
"Your Majesty, I have just listened and I feel that what Concubine Lan said is true to her heart. The imperial concubine has been sealed, so the matter must be settled. Why do you have to offend the imperial concubine again?" The maid came forward with a worried look on her face. looked at her and said.
"What do you know? Why can't I fight for this opportunity? Besides, after a day of not issuing the imperial edict, I will have the opportunity. Do you think she will forgive me if I give in now? She will only think that I am afraid. ”
She just refused to accept it. She had had a falling out before, and now she was showing weakness. She couldn't help but feel ashamed.
Thinking that Concubine Lan was so dedicated to persuading him for Jiang Jinxin, she must also be doing things for Jiang Jinxin. If the two of them joined forces, he really had no chance.
Thinking of this, Concubine Xuan's face showed viciousness, and she seemed to have made a decision, and said to the maid beside her, "Go and call brother."
The maid was startled and said, "My queen, please don't fall for the Seventh Princess's trap."
"Go if you are told." Concubine Xuan said coldly.
Not long after, Pei An came. Hearing his sister's plan, he was a little shocked and said, "You are crazy. If this is found out, we will be doomed."
"You send someone to keep an eye on the Seventh Princess. If she wants to take action, take advantage of the chaos to take action. If you can kill them both, then kill them both. If not, kill Concubine Lan. Don't you want me to be the one to take action?" Going to the Queen?"
The imperial concubine must have followed the emperor in a carriage. With the Royal Guards guarding her, ordinary people couldn't hurt her at all.
Pei An was startled, then he naturally hopes that his sister can become the queen.
Pei An thought about it and decided that it was feasible. He would take advantage of the chaos and investigate, but no one would investigate him.
Tianxuan Pavilion.
The emperor drank too much last night and had a headache when he woke up early. Jin Xin had already gotten up early and was waiting for him to wake up.
"Your Majesty, everything is ready for the march outside." Huang Wanshun replied.
The emperor hummed and still felt a little uncomfortable. Jin Xin asked someone to bring him sobering soup and fed him a few mouthfuls himself.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Xiao submitted his resignation this morning and plans to live in seclusion in the countryside." Jin Xin said, scooping up another soup and feeding it in.
The emperor frowned when he heard this, "Is he forcing me?"
"Then what is the emperor's plan?" Jin Xin seemed casual, but there was some caution and expectation in her eyes.
The emperor naturally saw it.
"I said, I just want to make you the queen. The more the Xiao family wants me to agree to this promise, the more I will not agree." He looked at her gently and said to her solemnly.
Hearing this, Jin Xin lowered her eyes, put the sobering soup aside, and then leaned into his arms, "I know that the emperor is in trouble. Over the years, I have watched the emperor come along and experienced many calculations. The harem is not as good as the previous dynasty." It's simple, what they are fighting for is nothing more than the emperor's favor, but this Xiao is different from other women after all."
"I know, so in a short while, I will give you everything I promised you."
Jin Xin raised her eyes and saw how gentle the emperor was. It seemed that he had become more tender since he got sick, and there was much more sincerity in his eyes.
Yes, the love he wanted that would never change his heart, he found it in himself.
After getting ready, we set off.
Jin Xin still went back in a carriage with the emperor, but this time her mood was completely different from when she came.
Jin Xin really wanted to see her children. When she arrived in the capital after nightfall today, she could see her children.
Halfway through the journey, I looked again at the vast field of crops that I had seen when I came in. All of them had been harvested. One or two of the surrounding trees had yellowed leaves, and a lot of them fell off when the wind blew.
The coldness is already obvious on my body, winter is coming soon.
While the two were talking, the carriage suddenly vibrated, and the leading horse suddenly started running uncontrollably, causing the remaining horses to also run wildly.
Seeing this, Gu Zhao hurriedly jumped up from his horse and tried to control it, but the horse seemed to be crazy and started running wildly.
He actually rushed out of the team and started running randomly without following the original route.
"What's going on?" the emperor asked loudly.
"Back to the emperor, the horse suddenly became restless." The servant said in a panic.
The leading horse, tall and fierce, was tamed specially for the emperor's driving. It has always been obedient, but today it was a little difficult to control.
The leading horse ran wildly away from the team, and the cavalry behind him quickly followed.
Gu Zhao also kept tugging on the reins, but it was useless. He could only fly and sit on the leading horse, but the horse became more and more excited as he ran, so he could only find a way to untie the rope and get out of the carriage.
The two people in the carriage were shaken around. Jin Xin could only hold on to the carriage tightly, but through the carriage window, she saw the black cavalry coming this way.
Judging by the looks and clothes of those people, they were remnants of the vassal state.
Jin Xin grabbed the emperor's clothes and said, "Your Majesty, look."
The emperor looked over there and immediately understood that his carriage had been tampered with. The purpose was to let the horse take him away from the team and reach a place beneficial to the assassins, so that they could launch an encirclement and massacre.
Jin Xin quickly looked at the Royal Forest Army behind them. The cavalry was following closely. When they saw the assassins chasing after them, the cavalry immediately went to stop them.
But as we entered the woods ahead, we were afraid there might be an ambush in the woods.
Jin Xin took out the hand crossbow from under the seat cushion.
"Your Majesty, abandon the car!!" Gu Zhao shouted.
When the emperor heard this, without hesitation, he hugged Jin Xin's waist, rushed outside, and jumped down.
