Reborn Lady's Scheming

Chapter 263 The Choice of the Crown Princess

In Xian'an princess' intermittent statements, Xie Wanqing deeply felt that it was not easy for her and her brother to be a couple.

Today, Xian'an is willing to do such a stupid thing for her brother, she really can't bear it.

After finally calming Princess Xian'an's mind, seeing Su Wen come out of the room again, Xie Wanqing asked, "How is brother?"

Su Wen was silent, and replied: "The servant has lit a incense stick in the room, and the young master has already fallen asleep at this moment."

Xie Wanqing and Xian'an hesitated for a while, but decided to go in to see him. Princess Xian'an sat by Xie Zi'an's bed comfortably, and at the same time turned her head to tell Xie Wanqing: "Go to work tonight. I'm here with him."

"You..." After thinking about it for a while, Xie Wanqing agreed, it should be to give them more chances!

At noon, Xuanyuan Jue sent someone to pick up Xie Wanqing, and the two went to meet Yingying together, told Yingying about the current situation, and asked her to be careful, whether she could win the prince's heart from Fourth Miss Qin , it depends on her ability.

Yingying stood aside, lowering her head silently, not daring to look at Xuanyuan Jue, she had some strange feelings for Xuanyuan Jue, she was also a woman, Xie Wanqing always believed this.

Xie Wanqing can understand Yingying's inner struggle at this time, she has been dealing with the prince for so long, she has always guarded her heart and guarded her body, now the situation has changed drastically, and a Qin Yu has been born, if she wants to reverse it, I'm afraid she will no longer be able to play hard to catch like before The prince's appetite has grown, she must learn to cater to what she likes, learn to take the initiative to cater to him, in order to grasp the prince's body and mind.

"Yingying." Xie Wanqing took Yingying's hand, as if a thousand words were choked in her throat, "You are very important to the prince."

"It's very important..." Yingying repeated sadly: "Yes, it's a very important pawn." She should always keep her identity in mind, and don't think about it when she shouldn't be infatuated.

"Yingying understands what I'm going to do, my lord, don't worry, Ms. Xie, Yingying will definitely not let you down!" Yingying looked at Xuanyuanjue with a little thought in her eyes, even though she tried her best to hide it. , it is inevitable to expose a little.

Later, I heard that the prince invited Qin Yu several times, but Qin Yu politely rejected them with various reasons, so he felt resentful and came to Yingying to seek comfort. Yingying greatly satisfied Xuanyuanming's strong sense of conquest, which made him once again Falling in love with Yingying, neglecting everyone in the East Palace.

"Yingying is really capable, you are right, we really should believe in her ability!" Xie Wanqing sat in front of the window of the private room in Zuiyulou, sighed, holding a cup of untouched fragrant tea in her hand.

Xuanyuan Jue stared at Xie Wanqing fascinatedly, but Xie Wanqing blushed a little from his staring, turned her face away, and said coquettishly: "My lord? You don't get tired of always looking at it like this!"

"How could it be?" Xuanyuan Jue retorted, "It would be great if I could keep it by my side and watch forever!"

Xie Wanqing knew that Xuanyuan Jue had the idea of ​​asking the emperor for a marriage again, but she was still waiting for a good time.

"I heard that Miss Qin wanted to see the prince several times, but was rejected by the prince. I'm afraid the prince will hurt that Miss Qin's heart."

Speaking of this, Xuanyuan Jue felt a headache, and reached out to touch Xie Wanqing's nose, "It's not all because of your good deeds, if you hadn't made your own decisions at the palace banquet that day, how could I have caused this king to mess with Qin?" Miss is such a trouble?"

When Xuanyuanjue said this, Xie Wanqing, who was still a little guilty in her heart, became aggrieved, "That day, the sound of the prince's flute and Miss Qin's harp were in harmony. I can't control this..."

"But you also know that this king will never disobey your request, you said you want to hear the sound of the flute..."

"So, after all, the prince is still doing it for me, but unfortunately he caught Miss Qin's attention. Is it my fault?"

"It's your fault!" Xuanyuan Jue followed Xie Wanqing's words and said, "I don't punish you for anything else, I just punish you to solve this trouble for me!"

Xie Wanqing frowned: "That's easy, besides, it's not my turn to 'relieve the worries' for the prince, presumably, your royal father will soon be unable to sit still!"

"Father?" Xuanyuan Jue's bright eyes raised slightly, "Do you mean that Father will propose a marriage order in the near future?"

"Otherwise?" Xie Wanqing smiled while holding her chin, "Since the emperor has this heart in mind, he won't procrastinate on purpose."

As Xie Wanqing expected, in a short time, the imperial decree came down to the Duke Anguo's mansion, and the emperor granted Qin Yu the crown prince concubine, and the wedding date was set after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Everyone in An Guogong's mansion was very happy and began to make arrangements for Qin Yu, but Qin Yu was the only one who was depressed.

Facing the potted flowers all over the room, Qin Yu felt an indescribable depression.

The Duke's wife brought Qin Yu two bolts of high-quality brocade to tailor new clothes for her. Qin Yu also looked listless when he saw the brocade, unable to lift his spirits.

The Duke's Madam put down the brocade, stretched out her hand to touch Qin Yu's forehead and said, "Yu'er, what's wrong with you? Why are you so unhappy all day long? Could it be that you are dissatisfied with the emperor's gift of marriage?"

"Daughter..." Qin Yu swallowed, and stopped talking.

Mrs. Guo took Qin Yu's hand, "My good daughter, Your Highness the Crown Prince, is a dragon among men. How many women in the world can't sleep because of it. You are fine. Why do you seem to be very dissatisfied with him?"

Dragon among men?Qin Yu sneered in her heart. At first, she was bewitched by her brothers and thought that His Highness the Crown Prince was a talent, but after she got to know him well, she realized that he was just a mediocre talent with nothing to show for it. Besides, with King Jing as a comparison, Qin Yu's heart grew stronger. He favored King Jing and disdained Xuanyuan Ming very much.

It's just that the marriage decree came so suddenly that she was unprepared for it.

Qin Yu raised his eyes to look at the Duke's wife, and said: "Mother, my daughter doesn't want to marry!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Mrs. Guo's complexion dropped, "This is what the emperor meant, how can I let you?"

Qin Yu disdains, "In the end, it's for profit!" There are some things that Qin Yu never said explicitly, but she knows better than anyone else that the meaning of her existence is just to be a tool to balance between the government of Anguo and the emperor That's all.

"Yu'er, there is nothing wrong with the crown prince. Besides, you are the main concubine entering the East Palace. When the crown prince ascends the throne in the future, you will be the lord of the harem and the mother of a country. Such a glorious position, many women can't even hope for a few lifetimes!" Mrs. An Guogong persuaded: "In the past, the princess was chosen by the Xie family. Do you know how much my mother regretted this? Now, the Xie family is unlucky. It is God's pity. Yuer, you Don't let your mother down!"

Mrs. An's words were nothing more than power, status, glory and wealth. Hearing this, Qin Yu was upset, so he hastily dealt with her perfunctorily, and sent her away, while he continued to stay bored in the room.

Calling the maid Yingluo, she asked, "Have you delivered the letter I asked you to send to King Jing?"

Yingluo pursed her lips and replied, "Miss, His Royal Highness King Jing is always very busy. He is always away from the mansion, so I don't know what he is busy with."

Once or twice, Qin Yu would comfort himself that King Jing was really busy, but if he didn't see each other again, Qin Yu could easily imagine that King Jing was avoiding him on purpose.

"That's all!" Qin Yu waved his hand, "Go down, and burn those letters that can't be sent out for me!"

"Miss..." Yingluo hesitated, "Miss, do you not plan to look for His Royal Highness King Jing again?"

Qin Yu snorted, "In the future... there is no future!" In the future, she will obediently be a puppet for the rest of her life.

On the other side, after that incident, Xie Zi'an and Princess Xian'an's relationship became inexplicably stable. Xian'an stayed with Xie Zi'an in Xie Wanqing's small courtyard all day long, feeding him medicine and giving him medicine , I was a little scared at first, but I gradually got used to it, and it was fine.

Xie Wanqing was also happy to see the harmony between the two of them.

Xie Wanqing wanted to go to the palace to meet Concubine Cui, so she asked Princess Xian'an to find a reason to take her there, Xian'an didn't ask any more questions, she finally understood that Xie Wanqing had her own ideas.

Coincidentally, Concubine Cui Gui was also talking about meeting Xie Wanqing, and when she saw Xie Wanqing appearing in front of her, she hurriedly pulled her away, as if she had endless words to say.

Xian'an spread her hands, and said playfully: "The imperial concubine wants to have a private conversation with Wan'er, should you give me some tea and snacks, and tell me to pass the time well!"

"That's natural!" Concubine Cui smiled, and immediately ordered someone to serve tea to Princess Xian'an.

In the inner hall, Concubine Cui hurriedly closed the door, and said to Xie Wanqing, "Wan'er, the emperor ordered An Guogong's daughter to be crowned concubine, what do you think?"

The purpose of Xie Wanqing's coming to see Concubine Cui was naturally for this matter, "Isn't the empress already clear in her mind? What do you want to say later?"

"I……"

"It's already at this time, is your majesty still unwilling to believe that the emperor intends to cut off the Cui family's future?" Xie Wanqing was a little excited when talking about it, "Can't your majesty see that the emperor is planning for the prince, and the Cui family's plan is not for you?" Loyal to the court and the emperor, but the emperor doesn't believe that the Cui family will be loyal to the crown prince!" Xie Wanqing analyzed all the pros and cons to Concubine Cui, just as expected, Concubine Cui was already shaken in her heart, and after Xie Wanqing's persuasion, She should have had some calculations in her mind.

"Since the emperor is determined to win over Mr. An, it is obvious that Mr. Zhen is no longer needed. With the emperor's means, what will he do with the things he does not need? Is the empress still using Wan'er to mention something?" What Xie Wanqing should say I have said everything that should not be said, I just hope that Concubine Cui Gui can think carefully, if the Cui family does not stand firm, it may be too late.

"Wan'er, if you allow Ben Gong to think about it at this time, Ben Gong always thinks it's wrong... Cui Jiawan can't do this kind of thing..."

Concubine Cui Gui didn't continue, Xie Wanqing was inexplicably angry, "Your Majesty thinks this is treason, right?"

"No...no! I just think that your grandmother will never agree to it!"
