Empress, she doesn't want to fight

Chapter 136 Eliza Visits

Inside the Sifang Pavilion, in Elisa's room, the envoy of the Dongli Kingdom said disapprovingly: "Princess, why did you agree with what Emperor Dajing said? How can Prince Dajing, who has the blood of our Dongli Kingdom's royal family, agree to marry the prince and grandson of Dajing so casually?"

While admiring her own appearance in the mirror, Elisa said, "Who said that I agree with Emperor Dajing's marriage to the princes and grandchildren of Dajing?"

"Didn't you say at the banquet that you would live in the Compassion Palace?"

"Living in the Palace of Compassion and Ning does not mean that I agree to marry the prince and grandson of Dajing." Elisa said: "Only by living in the palace of Dajing can I get in touch with the emperor of Dajing up close, so that the emperor of Dajing The emperor really likes me."

Although Elisa was rejected twice by Emperor Yong'an, she was too confident in her appearance. She felt that no man could escape the temptation of her beauty. Emperor Yong'an calculated that the rejection was only temporary, as long as she lived in After leaving the palace, Emperor Yong'an will become her servant sooner or later.

The envoy was not as confident as Elisa, but he thought of the news they got when they came, that the Nanman Kingdom was about to send troops to Dajing, and the two countries of Beicang and Xiling were also ready to move. When Nanman really fought against Dajing Well, if His Majesty the Emperor of Dajing Kingdom is smart, he will definitely agree to Dongli Kingdom's proposal.

Although Dongli Kingdom ranks last in terms of combat power among the five nations, sometimes combat power is not the only factor that determines victory or defeat.

They hoped that they could take down the fertile land of Dajing without bloodshed. Even though it might take a little longer, it was the method with the least loss, and even if it failed, it would not cause any harm to their Dongli country.

Thinking about it this way, Shi Chen didn't try to dissuade Elisa anymore. It would be best for Elisa if she could win the emperor of Dajing. If she couldn't win, the emperor of Dajing would agree, so it doesn't matter.

Early the next morning, Elisa moved into the Compassion Palace with her maid.

Emperor Yong'an had greeted the queen mother before, so the queen mother had already ordered Elisa to clean up her place early in the morning.

The first thing Elisa did after staying in the Compassionate Ning Palace was to visit Jiang Man in the Yunhua Palace. She had already found out that Jiang Man was the most favored concubine in Emperor Dajing's harem.

Jiang Man was reading to the second prince at this time, and when she heard that Lian Qiu was visiting her, Jiang Man's voice paused, and asked Qin to take the second prince out to play, while she received Elisa in the main hall.

After Elisa entered the main hall, she greeted Jiang Man with a smile, and said, "Ilisa is taking the liberty to visit, and please don't be offended by Empress Zhaoyuan."

Jiang Man nodded to Elisa with a smile, and said, "Princess Elisa, you are being polite. I wonder what Princess Elisa is talking about here?"

Eliza smiled and said, "There's nothing special about it, but Elisa is really curious about Mistress Zhaoyuan, so I came here to meet Mistress Zhaoyuan."

Jiang Man smiled slightly, "I think it must have disappointed Princess Elisa. There is nothing special about me."

Elisa nodded and said with a smile: "Indeed, Empress Zhaoyuan is more ordinary than what Elisa thought."

Wan Dong, Lian Qiu and other servants of Yunhua Palace heard what Elisa said, their eyes flashed with anger, only Jiang Man remained calm and said: "Unfortunately, the emperor likes ordinary people like me, but it's not good for Yi Li A glamorous person like Princess Sha has no interest."

"Bold!" The maid behind Elisa scolded angrily, "Since you dare to be unreasonable to our princess, are you trying to stir up conflicts between the two countries?"

Jiang Man picked up the teacup and drank tea slowly, ignoring what the maid Elisa said, Wan Dong stood up and said with a sneer: "Why is this sister so angry? Our mother just told the truth, why did she provoke conflict between the two countries?" What? You, a slave, dare to yell at our concubine of Emperor Dajing, I think you are trying to provoke conflict between the two countries."

Without waiting for the maid to speak, Wan Dong continued: "Princess Elisa is the princess of Dongli Kingdom, but our empress is also the empress of Zhaoyuan personally appointed by the emperor. Two masters talk, how can you be a servant?" A chance to speak? A servant like you who doesn’t see the distinction between superior and inferior, and who doesn’t take his master seriously, would have been thrown back to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to reteach the rules if it were placed in our Dajing Palace.”

"You..." The maid was so stunned by Wan Dong that she couldn't open her mouth, Elisa turned around and glared at her maid, saying: "Okay, shut up."

After reprimanding her maid, Elisa took another deep look at Wan Dong, and said to Jiang Man: "I didn't expect that the servants around Lady Zhaoyuan would be so eloquent. This princess has learned a lesson today."

Jiang Man said with a smile: "Princess Elisa laughed, I am a girl in the palace who is used to following the rules. If I see someone acting out of order, I can't help but go forward and teach me a few words."

When Elisa heard this, she smiled and said: "Then Empress Zhaoyuan must protect the people who serve you, if one day you teach someone who shouldn't be taught, I'm afraid it will be messed with by Empress Zhaoyuan." Trouble."

Jiang Man said lightly: "I don't need to worry about Princess Elisa, the people around me are always sensible, and she always teaches those who should be taught."

Elisa left Yunhua Palace without even finishing a cup of tea. People in the palace who followed Elisa's movements and Yunhua Palace's activities were happy to see it.

After Elisa left, Jiang Man called the servants of the second prince to her, and said: "Princess Elisa is now living in the Palace of Compassion, please watch the second prince carefully during this time, don't let the second The prince ran away to the Palace of Compassion."

Qi Qi, who was serving beside the second prince, responded: "Yes, the servants understand."

Emperor Yong'an was in the imperial study room, and heard that after Elisa went to Yunhua Palace, the imperial pen of the paper paused, and then ordered Zhao Quanfu: "Let those who stare at Dongli Kingdom pay attention, and don't let her make trouble in the palace. What a moth."

Zhao Quanfu responded, and went to convey Emperor Yong'an's order.

Elisa originally thought that she would be able to see Emperor Yong'an often after entering the palace, but after living in the Compassionate Palace for a while, she realized that even in the palace, it is not so easy to meet the emperor .

It was the end of August, and Emperor Yong'an hadn't been in the harem for a long time since he came to Yunhua Palace that night, and he didn't know what he was busy with. Jiang Man asked Xiaodouzi to ask in private, Nothing major happened.

Not only Jiang Man, but also the other concubines in the harem were also puzzled by Emperor Yong'an's behavior, and some people boldly speculated whether Emperor Yong'an was unable to do what he wanted.
