The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 394 Grandmother loves me the most
Empress Cao met Emperor Ming outside the main hall, she looked inside the hall first, and pretended to be concerned: "How is Qingluan?"

Emperor Ming sighed slightly, and replied helplessly: "This child is very stubborn, and she still wants to surrender to Boyue. I tried to persuade her with nice words, but she couldn't listen to what she said, hey! She If you refuse to listen to advice like this, there is nothing I can do.”

When Empress Cao saw that Emperor Ming was troubled by Qingluan, she acted empathetic, and said along with Emperor Ming: "Qingluan is indeed a bit stubborn. When the concubines knew her thoughts, they also persuaded her sincerely. It's been a long time, but this child just can't change his temper, and this is the concubine."

Because of this matter, Empress Cao was deprived of the power to control the palace by Emperor Ming. She picked on Qingluan and made a fuss in front of Emperor Ming, just to remind Emperor Ming of her grievances.

At first, Empress Cao issued a decree to demote Shen's wife into a concubine, but Ming Emperor agreed. Unexpectedly, there was a great chaos in the south. In order to protect his wife, Li Ling even threatened Emperor Ming with a handover talisman. on her.

Now that the south has been settled, the Xiongnu have also retreated, and the person who tied the bell must be untied. It is time to wake up Emperor Ming to lift the injustice against her.

Empress Cao glanced at Emperor Ming's expression, tried to cry and said: "Qingluan has been fostered by my concubine since childhood, and this concubine can't stand the child's entanglement, so she made a wrong idea at the beginning and made Your Majesty difficult."

Emperor Ming didn't know that he had nothing to do with what happened at the beginning. He looked at Empress Cao who had been in love for a long time, and his heart softened, and he said: "Why do you bring up the past? You are also doing it for the good of Qingluan. It’s not your fault.”

When Empress Cao saw that Emperor Ming finally let go, she quickly knelt down to thank her: "My concubine, thank you for your majesty's compassion."

Emperor Ming stretched out his hand to help her up, wondering: "It's just that this child Qingluan has committed stubbornness again. She is my daughter, and I can't just watch her die on a hunger strike. Hey! It's true that this child is so stubborn." It's a headache."

Empress Cao hurriedly stepped forward and replied: "Your Majesty, don't be upset, my concubine has a way."

Before Empress Cao could speak in detail, Emperor Ming waved his hands and said, "Don't think about Boyue anymore. Boyue is even more stubborn. He is determined not to marry Qingluan. Besides, the emperor Eldest sister can't agree either."

After hearing this, Empress Cao smiled and said, "Of course my concubines can't repeat the same mistakes to embarrass Your Majesty. It's just that this Qingluan is not only His Majesty's daughter, but also the flesh and blood of Zhen Guogong's mansion. Your Majesty might as well let the mansion know about this matter, and let your Majesty know." The one Qingluan insists on marrying is also the eldest son of the Duke of Zhenguo. Since this matter is difficult for His Majesty, let the Duke of Zhenguo handle it. It would be better if they agree to the Lord Shang, and if they still refuse, then if Qingluan There is really something wrong with her, and it is also her life, His Majesty has done her best for her, even the government of Zhen Guo, you can also explain it."

Emperor Ming was also helpless with this daughter, so he nodded and agreed when he heard the words: "Then, according to the queen's words, tell the Duke of Zhenguo about Qingluan's affairs, or announce the old lady in their mansion to come into the palace. Just give it to them, I really have nothing to do with her."

With that said, Emperor Ming walked out of Yilan Palace with his hands behind his back.

Empress Cao stood at the gate of Yilan Hall, looking at Emperor Ming's back, with a sly smile on her lips.

She not only wants to reverse this situation that is unfavorable to their mother and son, but also makes it difficult for those who have offended her, and more importantly, she must make good use of Qingluan as a pawn to pave the way for her son's future.

After thinking about it for a while, Empress Cao slowly entered the Yilan Palace, and saw Qingluan was crying on the bed, Empress Cao sat down beside her bed, and said with pretended concern: "Don't cry, hey ! Father and mother both know your intentions, and we also want to fulfill you, but in the final analysis, the Shen family can't tolerate you, that's why the son of the Li family is so resolute."

Qingluan is a careless person. How could she know the real plan of a person like Empress Cao who is so sweet and swordsman? She thought that Empress Cao was really helping her all the time.

When Qingluan heard this, she stopped crying, looked up at Empress Cao and said, "Queen Mother, Emperor Father refuses to make decisions for me, so I can only rely on you. You have to help me, if you can make my long-cherished wish come true, I will definitely repay your great kindness wholeheartedly."

Empress Cao took Qingluan's hand, and replied hypocritically: "What kind of repayment is not reciprocated, you are the only princess raised under the knee of the queen mother, if the queen mother doesn't love you, who else can love her."

After speaking, she sighed slightly, and continued: "Whether you can descend to Li Ling as you wish, you have to fight for it yourself."

After hearing this, Qingluan hurriedly said: "But I have already asked the father as you explained, but the father is him."

Empress Cao rolled her eyes at Qingluan and replied: "The reason why your father didn't agree to you explicitly is because he was concerned about the government of the town. If the government of the town is willing to agree, your father will naturally not agree." There is no reason not to agree.”

Qingluan was confused when he heard this: "Mother, what else should I do?"

Empress Cao looked at Qingluan, and said in a persuasive way: "The old lady of Zhen Guogong's mansion is your direct grandmother. She has always loved you the most. Think about it, if she knows your thoughts, she will be willing to let you go." ?"

When Qingluan heard this, she lowered the corners of her eyes, and said in a muffled voice: "To be honest with my mother, I mentioned this matter to my grandmother two years ago, but she should have rejected me."

Empress Cao coaxed Qingluan and said: "Silly boy, there was no such thing as sending you to the Huns to marry you at that time. Of course, the old lady couldn't deeply appreciate the difficulty of being a princess. Now that you narrowly escaped death, this matter But it's very different."

Seeing that Qingluan raised her eyes again, Empress Cao said persistently: "You are the granddaughter of the old madam, no matter how much the old madam loves the Shen family, she will definitely not be able to surpass you. You were almost sent to make a marriage this time. I'm afraid the old lady has already regretted that she didn't let you marry into the Duke's mansion back then, and if you force me to make a fuss this time, my mother doesn't believe that the old lady can be hard-hearted."

Qingluan sniffed when she heard the words, and said in a muffled voice: "Grandma always loves me the most, so naturally she won't leave her to die."

Empress Cao patted Qingluan on the shoulder and encouraged her: "That's right, His Majesty has already acquiesced to this matter, and you don't have to worry about it anymore. The queen mother will announce the old lady into the palace to visit you tomorrow, you You must seize the opportunity, and speak in such a way as to touch the heart of the old lady, and mention more about your mother and concubine who died in the palace for the sake of the government. If you cry and make a lot of noise in front of the old lady, you must show that I am not Li Ling's determination not to marry."

Under the persuasive temptation of Empress Cao, Qingluan finally came to her senses. She nodded hurriedly and said, "Don't worry, Queen Mother. As soon as grandma comes over tomorrow, I will tell her that if I can't marry my cousin, I will die from hunger strike."
