Chapter 789 The Grand Finale (14)
The eldest princess didn't answer, but from her expression, Xia Houqi had already got the answer she wanted, "It seems that it really is a game!"

"It's a game, but it's not as clear as you think who set up the game." The eldest princess said indifferently.

Xia Houqi raised her eyebrows, "Did mother find anything?"

"Someone used my tricks to get rid of the queen mother. But the queen mother is not ignorant, she already knew something. Therefore, when I did it, she was not surprised, surprised, nor frightened. , and even smiled at me."

"At that time, even if I wasn't conscious, I knew in my mind that the Queen Mother already knew that she would die, and she should be very satisfied that she was able to pull me into the back in the end! Otherwise, she wouldn't be smiling so heartily. "The eldest princess sneered.

Xia Houqi's expression was uncertain.

The eldest princess looked at him, with a trace of complexity in her eyes, "Xia Houqi, there are many smart people in the world, especially in the palace, and none of them is simple. Don't feel that you have everything in your hands, otherwise there will be no trouble." What a good result."

"This failure is the best example." The eldest princess said, then paused and said, "In the future, don't expect too much. It is a blessing to live in peace and stability."

Xia Houqi listened with a hint of sarcasm on her face, "My mother taught me to fight, to fight, to endure, to be ruthless, and to be willing to get it. A man must have ambition, wealth, and power. That's the most important thing." , As for the other things, it’s not important. Now, she’s saying this again, doesn’t my mother find it ridiculous, and doesn’t it make any sense?”

"Mother, some things have already taken root, and they cannot be changed by the son if he wants to." Xia Houqi said bitterly: "Son, I don't expect anything else now, it is enough to be able to live and have something to do."

The eldest princess didn't know what to say after hearing this, and things had come to this point.She couldn't accept that she had done everything wrong before.It's all about human nature!When you fail, you feel like you were wrong before.On the contrary, if it succeeds, I am afraid that the feeling of doing something wrong will not be there at all!
The two remained silent for a long time, and Xia Houqi said, "Mother, do you want to go back to the son-in-law's mansion?"

"It's not for me to decide. Everything depends on the emperor's will!"

After the eldest princess finished speaking, she glanced at Xia Houqi, but Xia Houqi was silent, but with just a glance, both of them knew what was in their hearts.

Xia Houqi didn't want the princess to go back to the princess mansion.

The eldest princess also did not want to return to the princess mansion.

Because once she returns to the son-in-law's mansion, the eldest princess will be fine alive, but if she dies, maybe her death will become someone else's and ruin Xia Houqi's most powerful blow.

However, she didn't want to die in obscurity like that, aggrieved.If she died in the palace, Xia Houqi might not be able to survive, and her death in the palace could be regarded as a sigh of relief.

It's just that they think well, but some people may not make them happy.

Xia Houqi sat for a while, but neither of them spoke. After a long time, Xia Houqi got up, tucked the quilt into the eldest princess, looked at her and said, "Mother, my son is going back first, and I will visit you tomorrow."

The eldest princess nodded, "Okay, you go back!"

"Yeah!" Xia Houqi nodded, turned and left.

The eldest princess looked at his back, her expression was uncertain and her emotions were unclear.

Imperial study room

Xia Houqi left over there, and Nangong Jueyi already knew everything about the Hall of Mental Cultivation here.

Nangong Jueyi listened to the report from the shadow guard, and listened to the frank and unavoidable conversation between mother and son.A cold smile overflowed from the corner of Nangong Jueyi's mouth.

It seems that some people can't settle down no matter what, their nature is hard to change, and some things are really deep-rooted and hard to change.

"Shadow Guard."

"master."

"You go……"

When the shadow guard listened to the emperor's words, something flashed in his eyes. It seemed that some people were clever but were mistaken by their cleverness.

Fengqi Palace

"Concubine, I have seen the empress."

"Xi'er, I have seen the empress."

"Yun'er, I have seen the empress."

Gu Qingyuan looked at the four people kneeling in front of him, Concubine Wei, the second princess Nangongxi and her daughter, Concubine An, the fourth princess Nangong Yuner, mother and daughter, and Concubine Shen.The other concubines in the palace have basically been locked up.In other words, not many concubines of the Supreme Emperor returned to me.It is said to be Sannomiya Sixth Hospital, but there are probably more than ten left now.And the ones who stood out the most were the three in front of them.

"Get up!"

"Thank you, Empress."

The five stood up and stood aside cautiously. Even Concubine Wei Gui, who was once in the limelight, was respectful and respectful at this time.

"Sit everyone!"

"Thank you queen." After hearing this, the few people sat down without any hesitation.Because, for the empress's disposition, they knew a little bit, and they would not do some meaningless things, falsely thinking that the snake was in front of her, maybe it would just be counterproductive.

"I was supposed to visit all the concubines, but I was too slow to walk because of my inability to let the concubines arrive first." Gu Qingyuan looked at them and smiled lightly.

It was a very plain sentence, but in the ears of people like them, who would make a few twists and turns in their hearts even when they heard a sound, they couldn't tell what Gu Qingyuan meant by it for a moment.Is it implying that they shouldn't come first, and it seems that she has lost a chance to perform?
"Your Majesty, we are being reckless." Concubine An said with anxiety on her face.

Seeing this, Gu Qingyuan suddenly felt that it was not appropriate to say polite words at all times.That being the case, let's make a quick decision.

"No, reckless, I also wanted to meet the concubines and the two princesses today."

After Gu Qingyuan's words came out, Concubine Wei Gui didn't move, Concubine An and Nangong Yun couldn't help but tighten their hands, and Nangong Xi raised her heart.

"Your Majesty, please tell me something."

"The second princess, the fourth princess is almost fifteen this year!"

When Gu Qingyuan said this, the expressions of several people, including Concubine Wei, changed a little.However, he still replied respectfully: "Yes."

"Daughters who are so old in the folk have started to get engaged. I think the royal family should be almost the same. Now that the queen mother is gone, the emperor is not feeling well. The marriage between the two princesses should be the two princesses who are most concerned about it!"

"Yes, ma'am."

"There are quite a few younger brothers from high families in the capital. However, if you want to find the one you like, you have to carefully explore it. After all, the two princesses are both daughters of the royal family, so naturally they must not lose the royal standard."

"So, I will report to the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor in these two days. Maybe I will send someone down to investigate, and then let the fifth and sixth princes follow! After the investigation, two princes will report to the Supreme Emperor, the Emperor and the two princes. You don’t need to tell me if the concubine reports, when the result comes out and the marriage is settled, just let me know, and I will instruct the Ministry of Rites to prepare the things that the two princesses should prepare for their marriage according to the set date.”
