Chapter 316 (1/2)
”What's the matter with you today? Did you go into the palace to greet the queen, and what happened to the contradiction with Li xuse?” Chu Zongge raised his hand and touched her head. The smile on my lips is getting stronger. ”Don't tell me how to enter the palace. If I go with you, maybe you won't be so angry.”
Xue ronghua glanced at him angrily. ”Do I look very angry?”
Chu Zongge nodded seriously. ”Isn't it? Tell me. What's the matter with you?”
”It's nothing. I'm just surprised that she has become the queen. I didn't expect that the Royal Princess can also ascend the throne. The emperor won't really fall in love with her, or just because she gave birth to twins,” Xue ronghua frowned. I didn't think for a moment and a half. ”I have a bad feeling.”
”The emperor is just old, and there is no one in the harem to help him, so he directly set up a queen to take charge of the harem. Although Li xuse is a princess, he is also the person who has accompanied him for the longest time and knows him best in the harem. So I don't think it's strange that she has become the queen.” Chu Zongge smiled comfortingly at her, ”You have a bad feeling in your heart. Isn't she the queen?”
”Don't you think the emperor's making her queen is actually paving the way for twins to enter the east palace.” Xue ronghua's eyes flashed a different way, ”it was also queen Chen who ascended the Phoenix throne. That's why the crown prince naturally entered the east palace to become a prince. Does the new queen Li also mean the weight of twins in the emperor's heart? Then your existence is in jeopardy.”
Chu Zongge frowned, ”in fact, I've always wanted to tell you something.”
”What's the matter? You won't hide anything important from me?”
”I dare not hide you, but it's because I haven't had time to say it for a long time. I've been discussing with the king these days,” Chu Zongge said with a smile on his lips. ”The emperor has long ignored me. He doesn't want me to be a prince, let alone the emperor. All he thinks about is other princes.”
Xue ronghua widened his eyes. ”Is it the emperor who invited the prime minister back to the state of Qin from Xirong in order to suppress you?”
”You're right. The emperor wants the king to have some power, so as to suppress my power, let other princes become princes, so as to inherit his throne, so that I can only be a good prince to assist the king,” Chu Zongge said with a long smile. ”The emperor's dream is really beautiful, but how can he not understand who will let the cooked meat go to his mouth.”
Xue ronghua wondered, ”but how do you know the emperor's idea?”
”The king told me that he came to Duan palace in advance instead of entering the palace, just to stand on the same boat with me,” Chu Zongge said with a cold light every word. ”The king has betrayed the emperor since the moment he knew his task. He is going to be my friend and enemy, and let me be the emperor.”
”The king should not help you without any conditions,” Xue ronghua thought. ”He must have conditions.”
”The condition is just prosperity and wealth. I promised it at once,” Chu Zongge said with a smile. ”The king is strange. I thought he would give me some tricky problems. I didn't expect it to be fortune.”
”The prime minister used to live in poverty in Xirong. It's no surprise that he would put forward such conditions,” Xue ronghua said with a sigh of relief. ”Now that the prime minister and the king have come to you, we will have a better heart.”
”Yes,” Chu Zongge looked at her strangely, ”how do you know that the king's life was bad before?”
Xue ronghua gave him a white look. ”When you were away, I was bored alone, so I talked to the prime minister without anything to do, and slowly learned about his life in Xirong.”
Chu Zongge gave her a complicated look, ”you'd better not talk to him. If you really have something to say, you'd better wait until I come back.”
Li xuse glanced down very indifferently, and a cold smile came up on his lips, ”why doesn't Princess Zhao greet the palace? The palace came all the way to Yongle Palace to see you. What's the matter with you without saying a word?”
Zhao Qingyao covered her stomach and knelt down to greet her. ”Concubines greet the empress. May the empress be healthy and auspicious.”
Li xuse didn't mean to let her get up. ”How many months has the baby been, imperial concubine?”
”It's been four months,” Zhao Qingyao pursed her lips and dared not attack. ”Thank the empress for her concern.”
”The Palace should care. What are you thankful for? After all, it's not the child of the palace, it's the child of the emperor,” said Li shuse. ”The imperial concubine remembers to take good care of her body and don't eat casually.”
Zhao Qingyao felt her feet trembling. ”Yes, concubines know.”
Li xuse lengthened his voice again. ”Does the imperial concubine think she will be a princess this time, or is she really the prince as you wish?”
Zhao Qingyao forced out a smile. ”They are all the emperor's children. Concubines and concubines like them very much.”
”They all like it very much. Why does the palace think that the imperial concubine only likes the prince and is not interested in the princess? No wonder the eldest princess is seriously ill. You don't even know that the imperial concubine. After seeing the eldest princess go, you don't have any sadness. You'd better accumulate some virtue for the child in your belly.”
Butterfly shadow took a look at the pale Zhao Guifei and begged anxiously, ”empress, it's time for your imperial concubine to get up.”
