The Emperor's Favorite: The Beauty Disturbs the World

Chapter 185
Chang Xi said: "If Li Ying can't be the crown prince for a while, Concubine Li will spend her days cautiously. We can't find her fault!"

Meier thought that Chang Xi's words made sense, and slowly sat back on the couch.

Chang Xi said again: "And the queen! She used us as cannon fodder every time, and let us fight to the death with Concubine Li, so that she could reap the benefits of the fisherman. I figured it out, instead of being pinned down by her all the time, it's better to be the hostess!"

"How to turn the customer into the main!" Meier said in surprise.

Chang Xi sneered and said: "The empress has always regarded Concubine Li as a thorn in her side. If Concubine Li's son is crowned the crown prince again, it will directly shake her throne as empress. At that time, she will definitely not be able to hold back, and will go forward to confront Li Concubine herself. Concubine Rush, when the time comes, we will watch the fire from the other side, and when both sides are hurt, why not kill Concubine Li!"

Mei'er heard that Chang Xi's words made sense, and said: "The empress is cruel and merciless, and regards the life of the concubine who is attached to her as nothing. In this way, she can indeed get rid of the empress' entanglement, and when the two forces are fighting At this time, silently develop your own strength, but are you sure that His Majesty will make Prince Ying the crown prince?"

Chang Xi sneered slightly: "I definitely will. If Your Majesty doesn't make Prince Ying the crown prince, wouldn't I fall into the water in vain and almost die!"

"What did you say!" Mei'er suddenly got up.

Chang Xi said: "That day at the Yiran Pavilion, I pushed Concubine Mei into the water and then jumped off by myself. King Xue saw it clearly, but I was just covering it up for me!"

"Are you trying to blame Gao Jieyu?" Mei Er frowned.

Chang Xi said: "I did it to make His Majesty really annoy the Queen! I already knew that Gao Jieyu had visited the Queen in the morning and specially lured them to Cuihu Lake. Come, let my plan come true."

"I heard that His Majesty severely reprimanded the Queen that time, it seems that your strategy really worked!" Meier nodded slightly.

Chang Xi blamed himself a bit and said: "However, I just high-fived Concubine Mei that day and swore not to use these ghostly tricks again, so I lost my word in a moment!"

Meier said: "That doesn't count, you did it to take revenge on the empress, and you didn't hurt Concubine Mei, you just made her choke a few times."

Chang Xi sighed: "Where is it that I choked on a few sips of water? It's really dangerous. I expect that King Xue will try his best to save me, otherwise with my water quality, I won't survive for a while and I will drown! But the risk is worth it , the Queen will be suspected by His Majesty in the end!"

Chang Xi got up slowly, pushed open the window, and looked into the distance, "I will never soften my heart again. The price of being soft-hearted is to let the queen throw me under the horse and hurt me. Seek justice one by one!"

"Zhaoyi!" Little Zhao Zi hurriedly ran into the servant, staggered and almost fell to the ground.

Mei'er said, "Why panic? No tiger will eat you behind your back!"

Little Zhao Zi stammered: "Your Majesty...Your Majesty...Prince!"

"The position of the prince has been decided? Who is it!" Chang Xi hurriedly got up and asked, and in desperation, his clothes brushed all the teacups on the table to the ground and smashed them to pieces.

"Prince Ying!" Little Zhao Zi took a breath and finally said the name.

it is as expected!Chang Xi's estimate was correct, "Your Majesty just left here, did you make a decision so soon?"

Little Zhao Zi said: "Yes, Your Majesty went down to the Qinzheng Building and directly ordered Mr. Zhang to draw up an imperial edict. I'm afraid it will be announced to the world tomorrow!"

Chang Xi slowly sat back on the bed, and said with a sneer: "Tonight, some families are really happy and some are sad!"

Yu Zhaorong, Guo Shunyi, and Yun Cairen in Kunde Hall were chatting with the queen about the family affairs. The queen learned how to behave this time and sent all the maids out. They chatted secretly for a long time. Aunt Youlan rushed in from the door in a hurry, the empress had never seen such panic for many years!

"My lady, something serious has happened!" You Lan frowned, making the wrinkles on her original ravine face even deeper.

The queen was startled, and hurriedly said, "What happened?"

The eyes of Yu Zhaorong and others were all focused on You Lan, You Lan swallowed her mouth, and said with difficulty: "Your Majesty has appointed Prince Ying as the crown prince!"

"What! What did you say!" The queen stood up with trembling hands and asked again.

"Your Majesty has made Prince Ying the crown prince!" You Lan repeated these words, her voice choked up.

The queen looked at the nurse in front of her in disbelief, and the jade ruyi in her hand slowly slipped, fell to the ground with a "slap" and shattered into pieces.Looking around, I saw that Yu Zhaorong and the others had turned into two people. After blinking their eyes, they felt dizzy for a while, and they were about to fall to the ground in a trance.

"Queen!" Yu Zhaorong yelled and took a few steps forward, rushing forward with Guo Shunyi, and supported her with his hands.

"I'm fine! I'm fine!" the queen repeated weakly, as if she had lost her mind.

Yun Cairen had never seen the empress so distraught, she was stunned by the side, Guo Shunyi said angrily: "Still standing there watching, hurry up and bring a cup of tea to your empress!"

Under Guo Shunyi's stern reprimand, Yun Cairen brought a cup of calming tea carelessly, and served it up, but before it reached the Queen's lips, a lot of hot tea splashed out because of trembling hands.

"It's really useless!" Guo Shunyi, who has always been gentle, became annoyed when faced with such a big matter, took the warm tea, and pushed Yun Cairen staggeringly.

Yun Cairen was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, bowed his head and dared not speak.

The queen drank the hot tea brought by Guo Shunyi, and after a while she regained her composure and said quietly, "When did His Majesty decide?"

You Lan couldn't bear the Empress's sadness, first she stroked her back a few times, and said with tears: "Your Majesty just ordered Zhang Jiuling to draw up the imperial edict for the crown prince in the Qinzheng Building, and Xiao Luzi's confidant happened to be on duty, so he risked his life to come out to inform of!"

"Why didn't Your Majesty discuss this matter with this Palace and decide this matter directly?" The Empress looked up at You Lan and the others, wanting them to give herself an explanation.

Yu Zhaorong shook his head miserably, "Your Majesty must cheer up to fight Concubine Li!"

The queen took a deep breath, gradually accepted the reality in front of her, sat upright behind the case, and said, "I'm fine, let's discuss what to do about this matter!"

After Yu Zhaorong and Guo Shunyi retreated to their case, Yun Cairen also stood up from the ground and ran behind the wooden case, not daring to make a sound.

Guo Shunyi said: "Your Majesty seems to have made up his mind, and it will be too late even if he rushes to the Qinzheng Building! Why don't we think about what we should do after Li Ying becomes the crown prince!"

"What else can I do? I can only take one step at a time! I think that when the prince Ying was not the crown prince, Concubine Li was so arrogant, and now that the crown prince is established, she doesn't take me seriously!" The queen leaned on her forehead, I am very worried.

Yu Zhaorong said indifferently: "Prince Ying just established the crown prince! Whether he can live until His Majesty dies is not certain if he becomes the throne himself! Empress Empress must not become discouraged at this moment!"

This remark reminded everyone, the queen pondered for a moment and said: "Yu Zhaorong is right! It's time to cheer up and deal with it!"

Guo Shunyi said slowly: "In the past, we used Wu Zhaoyi, but we were always on guard against her. Now that the prince Ying has established the crown prince, should the empress change her strategy, stop working hard on Concubine Mei and Wu Zhaoyi, and concentrate on dealing with her?" Concubine Li?"

"That's right! The harem is evenly matched so that the Empress's succession will not be endangered. Concubine Li's family is now the dominant family. It is not a long-term solution. It is easier to control if you support Concubine Mei and Wu Zhaoyi!"

The queen frowned and said, "I don't like Concubine Mei's aloof appearance. It's hard to guarantee that she won't be the next Concubine Li. Chang Xi is pretty good, but is she worth supporting? Why do I think His Majesty treats her so well?" Bad time?"

Yu Zhaorong said: "Supporting Wu Zhaoyi is the best choice. The concubine and sister Shunyi are incompetent. They have fallen out of favor for a long time, and it is difficult to regain favor. But Wu Zhaoyi is not the case. She is His Majesty's cousin, and she is young, so she still has many opportunities. Yes, what's even more rare is that she is a woman from the Wu family!"

Yun Cairen listened to their conversation for a long time, and seeing that they wanted to support Wu Zhaoyi but was not a newcomer, he was very indignant, so he asked, "What's wrong with the women of the Wu family?"

"What's the matter?" Yu Zhaorong said with a sneer at such stupidity: "The cloud of Wu's meddling in politics has not dissipated from the hearts of the Li family in the Tang Dynasty, and they and the group of ministers will never tolerate another Wu. A woman with the surname is the queen, so there is no risk in supporting her!"

"That's it!" The queen clapped the case, "Concubine Li, since you won't make this palace feel better, you can't sleep in peace either!"

Recalling such a resentful tone in Kunde Palace, Yun Cairen, who was about to make trouble, swallowed his words back into his stomach, and shivered unconsciously.

In the third year of Kaiyuan, Prince Ying was registered as the crown prince and moved to the East Palace.Her mother, Concubine Li, was winning day by day, endangering her successor, and the queen vowed in anger that she would not be at odds with her. The struggle in Xingqing Palace reached a fierce stage.Can Chang Xi protect herself when the two tigers fight each other as planned, and gradually become stronger; what will happen to the concubine and the empress?Who is the mysterious protagonist who assassinated Li Longji?
