Red Mansion is so charming

On this day, Su Ran stepped into Yonghe Palace again.

After the interior of the imperial city was basically stable, Concubine Xiao and the third prince Hongyan were escorted back to the palace.

Su Ran would feel relieved only if she stayed by his side.

After all, if he wanted to establish Hongyan as the new emperor, it would be more justifiable with her as his mother-in-law by his side.

When Su Ran entered Yonghe Palace, Concubine Xiao was playing with her prince Hongyan.

After all, Hongyan is only four years old, so he still cannot get rid of the playful nature of children.

As soon as Su Ran came in, Hong Yan wanted to pull him to play with him.

However, at this time, Su Ran came to discuss matters with Concubine Xiao. She was not free yet, so she had to ask two eunuchs to bring Hong Yan to play with her.

After Hongyan left, Su Ran bent down and saluted Concubine Xiao: "Su Ran has met Concubine Xiao."

Concubine Xiao saw Su Ran's serious look, and immediately showed a wry smile on her pretty face: "You and I don't seem to need to be so formal, do you? Besides, now that you have controlled the imperial city, Yan'er and I are not allowed to let you How to handle it?"

Su Ran saw that the other party looked a bit angry, so she couldn't help but smiled and said: "Listen to what the concubine Xiao said, it's an insult to me, I don't know what I did to dissatisfy the empress, please show me .”

Hearing this, Concubine Xiao sighed softly: "I'm just worried about Hongyan's future. Now you leave our mother and son in the palace, and, as far as I know, the other two princes are also still in the palace. I don’t know how you want to deal with them, should you kill them? Or imprison them?”

When Su Ran heard what the other party actually said, she secretly sighed in her heart.

Although she is a female, based on her background and knowledge, she probably has some understanding of the rise and fall of dynasties in the past.

Therefore, it is understandable that she would have such worries in her heart.

According to the usual practice in the past dynasties, all princes except those who are proclaimed emperor will basically be killed.

Those with better luck will be assigned to be an idle prince with no real power in a remote and barren land.

In fact, it was not that Su Ran had never thought of getting rid of the other two princes. However, the eldest prince was the son of Queen Fan Yuting, so he couldn't do it yet.

After all, Fan Yuting is a woman whom she respects very much.

Although she said she had a grudge against the noble concubine Feng Yan'er, her father Feng Bingyuan was mainly behind it, and he had nothing to do with the second prince Hongqi.

Besides, it doesn't seem appropriate to kill the prince at this time.

Therefore, to be on the safe side, Su Ran did not rush to make a decision.

Thinking of this, Su Ran looked into Concubine Xiao's eyes and said: "Concubine Xiao's words are not unreasonable. To be honest, I have had murderous intentions towards some of them, but no matter what, I have no intention of killing Hongyan." I won't do that. This time we successfully entered the imperial city, and my wife and your brother deserve the most credit, so I won't do anything like that."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Xiao raised a helpless smile and said, "Then what are you going to do with us?"

Seeing this, Su Ran stared at the other party seriously and said: "I am going to support Hongyan as the new emperor. As for you, you will naturally become the Queen Mother Xiao. But before that, I have a small question to ask you. please teach me."

When Concubine Xiao heard that Su Ran said that she wanted to make her own son Hongyan the emperor, her heart immediately stirred up.

She had also thought about fighting for the crown prince position for her son Hongyan, but with the eldest son Hongdan born by the empress and the second son Hongxi born by Concubine Xiao in front, to be honest, she had only had this idea. That's all, I didn't hold out any hope.

But now, the man in front of her actually wanted to proclaim Hongyan as the new emperor, which made Concubine Xiao feel a little excited.

The feeling was like coming from the bottom of the valley to the clouds, so fluttering and unreal.

In Concubine Xiao's mind, she originally thought that Su Ran would establish himself as emperor, and then just provide for herself and her son Hongyan with fine clothes and food. In this way, she would fulfill the promise she made when she took her personal jade pendant.

But now, he gave himself a big surprise.

At this moment, Concubine Xiao couldn't help but take a deep look at the man in front of her.Hong Yan is still so young, so he naturally knows his thoughts, which is to make it easier for him to control his younger son's succession.

However, anyone in his position would probably do this.

Therefore, there is no way to blame him for this.

Thinking like this, Concubine Xiao looked at Su Ran and said, "If you have any questions, just ask them. Whatever I know, I will tell you everything."

When Su Ran heard this, she looked into the other person's beautiful eyes and said, "I just want to ask, your brother's surname is Han, why are you called Concubine Xiao?"

When Concubine Xiao heard that it was such a question, she couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

After a moment of silence, she slowly said: "My father's surname was originally Han, and my elder brother Zijing took his surname. The reason why I am called Concubine Xiao is because I took my mother's surname. The reason why I am named Xuan'er is because my maternal grandfather was a very popular minister in those days, and my father was born into a poor family. Therefore, my father is considered to be a descendant of the Xiao family. In this way, although my brother and sister are one and the same Born to the same mother, but each has a different surname."

After hearing these words, Su Ran suddenly understood that this matter was so simple.

The next moment, he looked at Concubine Xiao and said, "In that case, from this moment on, the empress will be the Empress Dowager Xiao."

Hearing this, Concubine Xiao smiled and said: "It's just a title. You can call me whatever you want. Yan'er is still young. I just hope that you can assist him with all your heart. Whatever you want, we, mother and son, will satisfy you. If you If you have no objections, I would like to ask you to be the regent of the Daqing Dynasty and assist Yan'er in handling government affairs."

Seeing that the other party was so transparent, Su Ran could not help but secretly admire her. She was indeed a very smart woman.

However, after the other party said this, he had to express his position to some extent.

Thinking of this, Su Ran bowed to the other party again and said: "Thank you, Queen Mother, Su Ran will definitely live up to your trust."

After the words fell, the two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.

At this moment, Xiao Xuan'er's smile obviously came from the heart.

Because she knew that she and the man in front of her had already achieved what they wanted in this conversation.

And this ending is undoubtedly the most ideal solution to the current situation.

Xiao Xuan'er slowly walked up to Su Ran, and there was light flashing in her beautiful eyes.

Such a smart and transparent woman can naturally see what Su Ran wants and needs from his words and deeds.

At this time, Su Ran was staring directly at his body.

As a woman, Xiao Xuan'er knew what he wanted.

She gently raised her jade hand and put it on Su Ran's shoulder. Her eyes moved and her red lips parted lightly as she said, "Prince Regent, why don't you quickly undress me?"

The reason why she took the initiative to do this was actually that Xiao Xuan'er had another thought in her heart.

Although this man currently plans to support his son Hongyan, it cannot be ruled out that one day when his power reaches the peak, he will have the intention to establish himself as emperor.

Therefore, I must do everything possible to firmly tie this man.

Only in that way can we win more chips before the future changes come.

At this moment, Xiao Xuan'er had secretly made up her mind.

If there is a chance, he must try to give birth to a son for Su Ran.

In this way, even if he has plans to become emperor, he can win more initiative in the next struggle.
