Chapter 145 Stealing the Qinglong Order
It’s not that Empress Dowager Xiaoduan has never heard of praise, but the whole palace is her lackey.
It was just the praise of the silly white-sweet concubine's niece, which made people feel sincere and relieved.
Especially her niece of the imperial concubine, she is a stunning beauty herself.
Empress Dowager Xiaoduan smiled angrily and said, "Xian'er's mouth is so sweet."
Immediately afterwards, the conversation changed, and he said earnestly: "Xian'er, you and I are both from the Xiliang clan. My aunt has always regarded you as her biological daughter. I hope you can understand your aunt's painstaking efforts."
"Anyway, my aunt won't harm you."
"Do you know that a woman can support her in the world is always her parents' home?"
"Auntie..." The woman seemed to be moved and shouted emotionally. The emotions in her eyes that had been tangled, slowly calmed down after Empress Dowager Xiaoduan's attack on her heart, as if she had made some decision.
Empress Dowager Xiaoduan saw the fair and bright woman in front of her pursed her lips and said softly: "Auntie, Xian'er believes in you."
Empress Dowager Xiaoduan chuckled slowly.
She said:
"Good boy."
...
Xiliang Xian learned something from Empress Dowager Xiaoduan.
For example, the emperor always distrusts the original owner, the imperial concubine, just because the original owner was the Princess of the Western Yue Kingdom and the niece of Empress Dowager Xiaoduan. The original owner was sincere in love with the emperor, so he begged Empress Dowager Xiaoduan to accompany her to act in a breakup scene.
To be honest?
Xiliang Immortal did not believe in it all, nor did he not believe it.
The most perfect lie is seven parts true and three parts false, and the truth is intertwined, making people unable to distinguish between true and false.
After Empress Dowager Xiaoduan told her the original owner's gossip, Xiliang Xian immediately said with a look of emotion: "It's really hard for my aunt. For my willfulness, you can actually bear such a stigma!"
She even expressed her loyalty: "Xian'er deserves to die for death. She had suspected that her aunt had ulterior motives before. From now on, I will never suspect that her aunt wanted to use me. If my aunt has any questions, she will give her instructions. Xian'er will definitely die forever!"
The words were what she wanted to hear, but why did Empress Dowager Xiaoduan always feel something was wrong?
It must be her illusion, right?
Looking at the fairy of Xiliang who was as silly and sweet as she was with beautiful black and white eyes, Empress Dowager Xiaoduan suppressed the strangeness in her heart, and played the emotional card for so long, she finally expressed her purpose: "Xian'er, my aunt will help you get the emperor's favor, and even a mother's position in the future. It's just that if you are rich and noble, don't forget each other, my aunt has only one wish."
The emperor's favor?
Sorry, I don't need it.
Don't cheat me.
However, Xiliang Xian was quite curious about the wishes mentioned by Empress Dowager Xiaoduan.
Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win a hundred battles. She spoke quietly, "Please speak for your aunt."
"Donglin Kingdom is respected by dragons. There is a Qinglong Order circulating in the royal family. It is said that the holder of the Qinglong Order can make a wish to the emperor." Empress Dowager Xiaoduan said with a smile, "You also know that your aunt is only your cousin Chen'er, and she really can't bear to leave him to the fiefdom. The Ai family is old now, and her biggest wish is to enjoy the grandson's care and let your cousin stay in Shangjing."
The Qinglong Order is true.
Wishes are false.
Xiliangxian almost immediately judged the truth from the words of Empress Dowager Xiaoduan.
She tilted her head and asked, "My aunt is the queen mother, why don't she let the emperor give an order and let her cousin stay in Shangjing?"
"The state has national laws, and the prince with fiefdom will stay in the capital of Shangjing for a long time. Even if the emperor has such filial piety, the royal family may not agree." Empress Dowager Xiaoduan said without blinking, "Only by obtaining the Qinglong Order can Chen'er stay smoothly and will not be criticized."
Xiliang Xian thought to himself that the mother and son, Empress Dowager Xiaoduan and King Zi Yin, have great ambitions.
I want both a fiefdom and a stay in Shangjing.
I really want your son to be happy and follow the example of Xiaoyao King without a fief?
Saying so many high-sounding words is nothing more than... I can't bear to lose the power of my hands.
You should know that the prince is allowed to raise private soldiers of certain specifications on his fiefdom.
In this way, the role of the Qinglong Order must not be as simple as Empress Dowager Xiaoduan said.
Xiliang Xian was smart and had vaguely guessed some of the little thoughts of Empress Dowager Xiaoduan. He followed her words and blinked his slender and curled eyelids. He looked at Empress Dowager Xiaoduan with pure eyes, tilted his head, and asked innocently:
"So, does my aunt want me to... go steal?"
“…”
Empress Dowager Xiaoduan's face froze.
Empress Dowager Xiaoduan didn't expect that the niece of the imperial concubine would be so silly and sweet that she would not leave her any part of the face and demeanor of a country, and she would directly expose her purpose.
Can she admit it?!
Is it shameless to admit it?!
Empress Dowager Xiaoduan was quite troubled, thinking about how to tell her niece who had become silly and sweet after losing her memory in a tactful way. She just wanted her to gain the emperor's trust, become the emperor's favorite concubine, and steal the Qinglong Order, but you have to pretend not to know, don't expose her, don't let her break her character.
