Lady Changning

Chapter 155 To gain trust, kill Baoer (1)

It was another late night, but fortunately the sky was full of stars, which was very beautiful.It seemed that this cold winter was finally coming to an end. People in the dark had no time to appreciate such a night scene, so they took advantage of the darkness to arrive at the place where they were waiting.

Strange to say, this place is the place where Xi Changning was brought by the Empress Dowager's people, which is the Huangyuan opposite the isolated island. Maybe the Empress Dowager never thought that she would meet the Empress Empress again here.

Hearing the rustling sound, Xi Changning flashed into the rockery and observed the face of the person who came.I just hope that the queen can trust her once and let her tell her plan again.

"Xi Changning."

The queen called Xi Changning's name softly.

Xi Changning, who heard the voice, walked up to the queen and blew out the palace lantern in her hand.The empress was startled.

"Don't be afraid, empress, she is a concubine."

"What are you doing in a sneaky way? I thought you had already made it clear that day."

The queen is the queen. Although she was taken aback, she immediately regained her dignified appearance.

"There was someone else present that day, and I think the empress knew it well, otherwise I wouldn't ask you out again."

In the darkness, neither of the two people could see the other's expression clearly, they could only rely on guesswork to figure out what the other was thinking.

"If you still want Ben Gong to give up the fight for the crown prince, then you have to speak up."

The prince was originally the queen's son. Now that he has lost his son, there is nothing wrong with the grandson inheriting it. The fault is that the grandson is young and has no competitiveness.

"The concubine wants to be promoted by the empress, and even help the third prince to become a prince."

"Shut up! You are presumptuous! The prince died not long ago, and you are so eager to find out?"

"It's not me, it's us."

When Xi Changning walked into the empress, the anger on her face was so obvious that the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes appeared. How clearly she could see in the darkness was enough to explain the empress's anger.

"Someone was eavesdropping that day, so it's inconvenient for my concubine to say more, but you know the situation better than me, Empress. Since it's all hard resistance, why don't you find a reliable backer?"

"Who taught you these words? Queen Mother? Third Prince?" The queen snorted coldly.

Xi Changning didn't speak, but just looked at the queen, hoping to find a reason to persuade the queen. Although he had plans in mind, would it be counterproductive to say this so quickly?

After thinking for a while, Xi Changning didn't do anything, so he took a step back and disappeared into the darkness, and the red clothes were no longer conspicuous in the night.

"Isn't the Empress Dowager more aware of her role as the Empress Dowager? You have fought, let alone joined forces?"

There was a sense of danger in Xi Changning's words.

The queen trembled when she heard this. She thought that no one would know about that matter again. How could Xi Changning know?
"The empress knows, so how could the third prince not know? The princes are very friendly, how could they not know? Do you want me to continue?"

"How did you know?"

Xi Changning actually didn't know it thoroughly, some things were pieced together by her and Zimu, so she could only follow the Queen's words, and from the Queen's reaction, she could see that there was something true.

"Empress Dowager, this concubine just wants to tell you that the Empress Dowager is just a springboard and cannot be kept. The reason why my father chose to cooperate with Empress Dowager is not because of her power, but because he can see that the Third Prince is bound to win."

I really don't know if the third prince would appreciate her for helping her like this if he knew about it, it was just to thank him for saving Helian Bao's life.

"Once the third prince gains power, the first one to get rid of is the queen mother. As for the empress, the concubines can tell the truth, no matter whether you fight or not, the third prince will not make things difficult, because the prince is a good brother."

Whether it is the prince or Huangfu Zimian, regardless of their identities, the third prince seems to respect them all, and there is even a kind of dependence from a younger brother to an elder brother.

I don't know if the prince was moved out, the queen seemed a little moved, maybe she didn't think that everything the adults did at that time was so memorable to them when they were young, let alone adults like them.

"What do you want to do?" The Queen finally let go.

"The concubine just wants to help the empress. Don't let the little prince suffer what the prince has endured. Not being the prince doesn't mean losing everything."

On the contrary, it is possible to lose everything because of being a prince.

"If the concubine can make the empress dowager withdraw, it is also to gain the trust of the queen mother. As long as the concubine acts as a bridge, then there is no problem in jointly overthrowing the queen mother."

The queen was shocked, didn't Xi Changning push himself into a dangerous situation by doing this?

"I also ask the empress to trust the concubine again. The concubine just wants to keep the empress and the little prince safe. Just like the empress did to Concubine Hui back then."

After all, they are real sisters, even if they have evil intentions, it is because of Gu Nian's sisterhood, otherwise how could there be the current Concubine Hui.Concubine Hui's appearance, the Empress Empress did not seem to regret, on the contrary, most of them were guilty, which also showed that she was just a mistake.

"I didn't expect you to be able to understand Bengong's thoughts at such a young age. In the past, the sisters entered the palace together and served the emperor together. They were favored by the red clothes for a long time, but she thought that Bengong was the elder sister, so she gave up the queen's position. It should have been harmonious Mu, but Bengong's heart..."

The empress regretted being persuaded by the empress dowager at that time, so she came up with the idea of ​​going out to Gu Hongyi, but thinking about it now, it was just a move by the empress dowager, and they deserved the torment they are suffering now.

"Changning, go ahead and do it. You don't need to investigate Concubine Hui anymore, you already know about it, but now that she is so quiet, I feel uneasy all the time."

The queen's words showed her trust in Xi Changning, which made Xi Changning approach the queen again, stretched out his hand to support her, and touched the queen's cold hand.

"Concubine Hui turned into hate because of love, and it's the same with you, so she must be very entangled in her heart."

The two sighed at each other, helpless fate always likes to play tricks on people.

Hefu Palace

Xi Lingyan stepped into the palace in a hurry, firstly because the queen mother was in a hurry, and secondly because she got some unusual news from Yan Xiufeng's mouth.

"The concubine sees the empress dowager."

"Do you know why I summoned you alone?"

Although she knew something in her heart, Xi Lingyan still pretended not to know anything on the face, hoping that the Queen Mother could explain clearly.

Although the queen mother knew that Xi Lingyan was pretending not to know, she didn't care.Apparently these things paled in comparison to what she had to say.

"The queen suddenly announced that the emperor wanted to make the third prince the crown prince. Xi Changning's hands and feet are fast enough."

Xi Lingyan was startled, Xi Changning actually did it, although she didn't know what method she used, but it was already a big deal to get the Queen to push her out.

"The concubine happened to have something to report to you, the queen mother, and I hope you will make a conclusion about Xi Changning after you know it."

When the Queen Mother told her this, she probably wanted to ask her if Xi Changning was reliable now.So what she knows is not only related to Xi Changning, but also related to her position next to the Queen Mother in the future.

At this juncture, everyone is selfish. She has sacrificed too much to get to this position and stand beside the third prince. She will never allow anyone to replace her.

"The concubine heard something from Yan Xiufeng. It turned out that the third prince was also investigating the relationship between Xi Changning and Hu Cheng. Hu Cheng had been wary of the Queen Mother's investigation before, so he took advantage of the loophole."

"Don't talk so much nonsense, what happened?" The queen mother heard something wrong from Xi Lingyan's words.

"The Purple Mansion in Hucheng was created by Xi Changning. It can also be said that Hucheng belongs to Xi Changning. As for the young master Zi and the maid He Lianbao, they are actually her subordinates."

"Empress Dowager, wouldn't it be dangerous to have such a woman by your side? Hucheng has risen for several years, and Changning was not yet ready."

In fact, when Xi Lingyan heard about this incident, she was also taken aback. It would be fine if they had already fallen out with Xi Changning.But at that time they fought side by side against the eldest lady, and Xi Changning concealed the matter, which meant that he didn't trust her.

In fact, Xi Lingyan didn't know what Xi Changning was thinking at the beginning, he just wanted to prevent the mother and daughter of the third aunt from being involved in a more dangerous situation, but in the end, Xi Lingyan still misunderstood her meaning.

"What you said is true?"

"What the concubine said is absolutely true. Isn't it more suspicious that she suddenly said that she would help the third prince?"

Although Xi Lingyan knew that what she did was really a villain, but she loved the third prince, and she couldn't stand Xi Changning attracting the third prince's attention.

What's more, now that Xi Changning has sent his confidant He Lianbao to the third prince, although the third prince has never spent the night with her, but who knows if that seductive face will seduce the third prince.Xi Lin is the best example.

"If you say so, Xi Changning's actions are still unbelievable. Neither Helianbao nor Zimu can be kept."

"But Hucheng is an official business now, and many places in the capital and even the Central Plains need their supply, and the emperor also appreciates Zimu very much, so he can't move."

Many forms seem to be connected but involve too many people, making it difficult to sort out.

"Since you can't touch Zimu, it doesn't mean you can't touch Helian Bao. It just happens to cut off Xi Changning's accomplices in the palace."

The queen mother felt that Xi Lingyan's news was very timely, otherwise she would have been fooled by Xi Changning. This time it was such a coincidence that she always felt that Leisurely was helping them behind the scenes.

"Lingyan, Helian Bao is in your palace, whether he can be your crown princess or not depends on whether you can handle things yourself."

The Queen Mother walked up to Xi Lingyan and patted Xi Lingyan's hands.How could Xi Lingyan not understand what the Queen Mother meant?It's just getting rid of a palace lady.

"Please rest assured, Empress Dowager, the concubine will definitely take care of it."

"The big wedding of Xi Lin and Princess Jing is coming soon, remember to be clean and fast."

Xi Changning wants to rely on her to climb up, so he has to see how much he is, it's like cheating her.Giving Helian Bao to the third prince seems to be just a cover.
