Xiao Lingjiang smiled and said nothing more.

The queen chose to trade with her, knowing that there would be a price to pay.

Xiao Lingjiang is not a kind-hearted person, and he doesn't have much blood ties with these two people.The prince is not a wise candidate, so the choice to promote him to the throne is just a helpless move.

Since the emperor's attitude towards the two princes changed drastically, the people around them who were trying to succumb to them had already dispersed like birds and beasts. The only one left was Li, who was struggling to support them, but did not dare to do anything.

Whether it is the court or the harem, the prince and the queen are both weak and weak.

Without the emperor's feeling of guilt towards the queen, how could the prince be the king?
To Xiao Lingjiang, such a prince was overwhelmed with heavy responsibilities but also easier to control.

As the saying goes, being with a king is like being with a tiger.No matter how powerful a minister is, he may be killed by a tiger's claw if he is not careful.

She has always cherished her own life, and she does not like to expose herself to the swords and claws of others.

When they entered Yingdu, she and the He family had already bowed their knees once in order to find out what happened in the shrine.

Now she has finally figured it out. Since the tiger's temperament is unpredictable, she might as well use her minions to hold the rope firmly in her hands.

The prince can continue to be his crown prince, and he can also be his emperor safely in the future.

However, the real power of the Great Zhou Dynasty can never be handed over to him.

The prince... he just needs to be a wealthy and comfortable king.

The queen saw her lowering her head to pour tea, her green-white fingers holding the handle of the white porcelain pot, making her look even more slender and white.He tilted his hand slightly, and the tea gurgled into the cup, lingering with the faint fragrance of tea.

The person in front of me looked calm, calm and peaceful.Who would have thought that it would be such a pair of slender hands that would stir up the current situation.

The queen stared at her hand holding the cup, feeling increasingly frightened.

Others may not know it, but they still only think of her as a royal princess who is about to get married.

But from then on, these hands were in charge of the power of the Great Zhou Dynasty!
Sensing the Queen's gaze, Xiao Lingjiang raised his eyebrows and chuckled: "Your Majesty, you don't like this tea?"

"How could that happen?" The queen came back to her senses and shook her head with a smile, "The tea you personally brewed, Ling Jiang, is certainly excellent."

Xiao Lingjiang took a sip of tea, and then continued: "Your Majesty, you should know that the saint is seriously ill. You and I know the truth. Your Majesty will have Concubine Li and Concubine De tied up, and that will be enough... "

Concubine Li is hers. After this incident, whether she wants to enjoy the rest of her life in the palace or escape from the palace, Xiao Lingjiang will help her.

As for Concubine De, although she did have other thoughts when the emperor was seriously ill, in the end, she only suffered an unreasonable disaster when the emperor was seriously ill.

Although Xiao Lingjiang felt that she was not a good person, she would not let others take the blame for her fate.

If the queen wants to use her hands to get rid of people, she has made a wrong idea.

The Queen couldn't help but hesitate after hearing this: "This..."

Concubine Li is easy to talk to, but Concubine De once took charge of the harem on her behalf and had a sixth prince under her lap.

This time she had a different plan in mind. Although she failed to succeed, it still made the queen extremely afraid.If we don't take advantage of this to get rid of her completely, I'm afraid there will be trouble again.

Xiao Lingjiang smiled: "Are you worried about the Sixth Prince?"

The queen was so confused by her that she could only nod.

"This is simple." Xiao Lingjiang tapped his finger on the wall of the cup, causing the tea in the cup to ripple in circles.

"Concubine De has no children, so the fight for the crown prince has nothing to do with her. It's just that the saint recorded the sixth prince, who lost his mother when he was young, in her name, and that made her have other thoughts."

"In this case, just let her have no way to think about it."

"You mean..." the queen's eyes lit up, "can she use this as an excuse to remove the sixth prince from her knees?" Although Concubine De did not murder the saint, it was true that she concealed the saint's serious illness and prevented the concubines and ministers from seeking an audience. She might as well He used this as an excuse to say that she had no virtue and could not continue to educate the sixth prince.

In this case, what reason would Concubine De have to fight for the position of crown prince?

Xiao Lingjiang nodded, and then said meaningfully: "Although the saint had previously intended to support him, the other princes are still fledgling. With me and the He family planning, the empress does not need to worry about these."

"Instead of focusing on these concubines and princes, I would rather pay more attention to His Highness the Crown Prince. After all, he has to be famous and powerful. If he is careless and does something wrong, he will be in trouble for you and me... …”

Her words seemed calm, but they contained a hint of warning, and the queen naturally understood it.

The prince and Xiao Lingjiang had many disagreements before. Although the two parties now said they were trading and cooperating, they were relying on Xiao Lingjiang after all.

The Queen was most aware of the child she had given birth to, and the Prince was not big-minded and had always been soft-spoken.

If, because of a temporary gain in power, he gets carried away and wants to do something to harm the interests of Zhou Dynasty like he did when he secretly mined copper, or if he turns to take revenge on Xiao Lingjiang, Xiao Lingjiang will not ignore it.

Today's Xiao Lingjiang is not the same as when he first returned to Yingdu, with no connections.

Not to mention the He family, the eldest son of Zhenbei Prince Pei You, the eldest princess and the consort He Yan, there are also people like Si Yuan Buqing, Minister of Punishment Zhou Yun, Yao Cheng general Han Zheng, Fan Yang Lu... and even the eleventh member of the Cui family. Lang is also interested in her.

Unknowingly, everyone inside and outside Yingdu, as well as the government and the public, seemed to be gradually getting on the same page with her.

Now that she can support the prince to ascend to the throne, if she doesn't want to in the future, it will not be difficult to choose another prince, or even plan with Pei You to replace him.

The queen was secretly shocked.

However, now that the matter has come to this, she can only bite the bullet and move forward.

"Just to reassure Jiang, I will definitely be very concerned about the prince."

Seeing the color on her face changing several times, Xiao Lingjiang sighed and said, "Mother, although you may not believe me, I do not have any ill intentions toward you and the prince."

"As I said before, the He family and I only need to protect our own safety and keep Dazhou safe. You keep your promise to the prince, and I will naturally keep my promise. The master of Dazhou will not be replaced by someone else. "

The queen smiled and said: "What did Ling Jiang say? Now that you and I are together, I believe you."

Xiao Lingjiang sighed in his heart and said no more.

The emperor is seriously ill and the prince oversees the country. The situation in the court is naturally changing.

The ministers didn't realize it at first, but when He Xiangshan was appointed as the prince's tutor and assisted the prince in handling the affairs of the court, they realized that the court had really changed!

The courtiers discussed it a lot, and there was a lot of suspicion in private. However, even so, the matter was settled.

When Gongji, the Prime Minister of Western Tibet, who was resting in the embassy, ​​heard the news, he couldn't help but knocked over the tea cup in his hand.

"He Xiangshan became the Crown Prince and Tutor?" he asked in disbelief.

Wasn't He Xiangshan gradually alienated by the emperor?According to Yongmu's speculation, after Xiao Lingjiang gets married, it's unclear whether the He family will still exist in this world.

However, now, He Xiangshan has become the prince's tutor and is highly valued by the prince.

After he found out the news that Da Zhou was seriously ill and comatose, he was secretly glad, thinking that he might be able to take the opportunity to make some plans. It would be even better if he could stir up chaos in Da Zhou's royal court.

However, before he could take action, the queen and prince, who had always been timid and had been almost abandoned by the emperor, stepped forward and seized power with lightning speed, stabilizing the situation.

But now it seems that this matter is not simple.

What role does Xiao Lingjiang play here?
And the date of getting married is imminent, what actions will Xiao Lingjiang and the He family do? (End of chapter)
