The Emperor's Favorite: The Beauty Disturbs the World

Chapter 303

After resting all night, Chang Xi still felt short of breath. It might be that yesterday's incident hurt her fetal gas. She didn't dare to be careless, so she invited Doctor Qin to treat her early in the morning. A pair of anti-fetal medicine was boiled and sent to Jiaofangdian, and Chang Xi improved after drinking it.

However, Chang Xi was extremely annoyed by what happened yesterday, and after finishing her grooming this morning, she summoned her mother Yang and her two younger brothers, Wu Zhong and Wu Xin, into the palace on the pretext of missing her relatives.

Ever since the Yang family lied to Chang Xi to appoint officials for her two sons, causing Chang Xi to be banned from the palace, she has never been ashamed to enter the palace. This time when she saw her daughter for the first time, she felt sore in her heart, and said in a heartfelt way: "They are all mothers. No, last time you made your own claim, you were greatly wronged."

Chang Xi smiled lightly, and pulled Yang Shi over to let her sit beside her, "Mother is worrying too much, we are all one family, and besides, mother is seeking official positions for Zhong'er and Xin'er because I have a caregiver in the palace!"

When Yang heard what Chang Xi said, she burst into tears and laughed, and beckoned her two sons to salute Chang Xi.

"See Concubine Hui!" The two younger brothers saluted respectfully.

Chang Xi looked at the two younger brothers who hadn't seen each other very much. Wu Zhong was tall and burly, with a Chinese-character face with piercing eyes and a general's heroic demeanor. As for Wu Xin, he had a fair face and a tall figure. Thin, like a Confucian scholar wearing a blue scarf, he couldn't help smiling and said: "Where is it so polite for a family to meet, just call me elder sister!"

Only then did Wu Zhong naively call Gou Changjie.

Chang Xi chuckled, but suddenly found an official wearing a green robe standing behind Wu Zhong, he was quite surprised for a while, and asked suspiciously: "This is?"

"Oh!" Wu Xin replied, "I almost forgot to introduce to Elder Sister!" As he spoke, he pulled the green-robed official to him, and Chang Xi sized him up. Under the black sword eyebrows, a pair of star eyes are as black as lacquer, and the lips are half pursed, which is quite a gentleman's demeanor.

Only to hear Wu Xin say again: "This is the nephew of my cousin's husband's family. His name is Li Linfu. He is bold and talented. Unfortunately, no one has introduced him to him, so he is depressed. This time he heard that we are going to the palace to meet the elder sister. So I wanted to ask me to bring a few words, but I thought they were all relatives, so there was no need to do that, so I brought him directly, please don't blame my younger brother for being proficient!"

Chang Xi hummed, noncommittal, but asked a little strangely: "What do you want to tell me?"

Li Linfu clasped his fists and said loudly: "I want to tell Concubine Hui that there are some things that should be planned earlier!"

"Oh? What's the matter?" Chang Xi became interested in this person.

Li Linfu smiled slightly, "For example, the prince!"

"Bastard!" Chang Xi slapped the wooden case hard, causing Wu Zhong and Wu Xin to tremble in fright, and shouted: "How dare you say such treasonous things in front of me, aren't you afraid that I will rule you under the law of the country, Mr. Li? "

Wu Zhong and Wu Xin secretly wiped off their sweat, all blaming him for talking nonsense.However, Li Linfu was neither surprised nor angry, and said slowly: "Concubine Hui is the most intelligent woman, she should understand what I mean!"

Chang Xi said coldly: "I don't understand! Master Li seems to be confused, Qiongyu—" The maid next to her responded, "Take Master Li to the outer hall to wake up!"

"No!" Qiongyu took Li Linfu out, but Li Linfu didn't explain, just strode out.

Wu Dao said, "Elder Sister, he is one of our own, and he is reliable!"

Chang Xi said in a deep voice: "I don't care if he is reliable or not, but in this palace, the walls have ears, and if he says such outrageous things, he should be punished!"

"Eldest sister punished him, how can I explain to my cousin!" Wu Xin muttered.

Chang Xi said with a gloomy face: "I haven't settled accounts with you brothers yet! Instead of doing good things all day long, I actually got some crooked things! Although Mr. Zheng intended to frame you two when he robbed the women of the people last time, but the fly You don't bite the seamless egg, it's because of your dishonesty that you give others an opportunity to take advantage of it!"

After hearing this, Wu Zhong and Wu Xin bowed their heads, like eggplants beaten by frost.

Mrs. Yang hurriedly said: "Listen to your eldest sister, don't go out and cause trouble in the future!"

Chang Xiyu said sincerely: "Our Wu family has been in a slump since the death of Empress Zetian. In our generation, at any rate, the elder sister has been favored by His Majesty, and the Wu family has also regained some brilliance, but you have to know how to make progress! Eldest sister is not I hope that you will make the Wu family's lintel more prosperous and do something for me in the foreign court, but you must also put some thought into being an official and help your majesty share the worries! If you miss a day, you will be a fool! You know, there is nothing wrong with us, those ministers treat us like black eyes Like a chicken, if you get caught again, wouldn't it be another bloodbath?!"

Wu Zhong and Wu Xin were sweating profusely at what Chang Xi said, and they kept nodding in agreement.

Yang said with a smile: "My son, don't talk about them! Just be careful with the child in your belly!"

Chang Xi smiled and said: "Mother, don't worry, I have been taking the anti-fetal medicine prescribed by Imperial Physician Qin recently, and the fetus in my womb is very good!"

Yang said with a smile: "That's good! Although Concubine Li is dead now, you are the one on His Majesty's heart after all, and you must beware of other concubines harming you, especially..." Yang lowered her voice and turned towards Kun De He pointed in the direction of the hall, "Especially the master, I heard that she is so jealous that she is asking her brother Man Chang'an to find a way to have a baby!"

Wu Xin interjected, "It's just a chicken that can't lay eggs, and it's useless to find anything!"

"Start talking nonsense again!" Yang sternly cursed.

Wu Xin said nonchalantly: "Originally, if I could do it, I would have done it a long time ago, and I still have to wait until now!"

Chang Xi was very speechless, and said: "In the future, remember to be cautious in your words and deeds, and criticize others so unscrupulously, be careful not to speak out!"

Only then did Wu Xin faint.

Yang shook her hand and said: "A group of bastards are here to provoke you, get out of here! Let me talk to your sister about myself!"

Wu Zhong and Wu Xin went down after hearing this.

Yang took Chang Xi's hand and said: "She is afraid that you will take her back seat, so she is hurrying to arrange it now, you have to be careful! Do you want your mother to accompany you in the palace?"

Chang Xi shook her head and said, "Mother should go back to the house to take care of those two younger brothers! My daughter has Wu Chongyi to help her here, so it won't be a big problem!"

After hearing what Chang Xi said, Yang felt a little relieved.

Chang Xi said again: "Mother, is Li Linfu outside the door really reliable?"

"Really reliable!" Yang nodded solemnly, "He is also a relative of our family. He has been good at studying and talented since he was a child, but he has no luck. If my daughter can help, please help! He is better than you. Those two younger brothers are strong together! They can also be counted as an arm of your court!"

Chang Xi nodded thoughtfully, "Daughter knows, mother should take good care of herself outside!"

Yang Shi nodded, and the mother and daughter chatted for a long time before Yang slowly left.

Chang Xi leaned on the couch and thought for a while, then greeted, "Qiong Yu, let that Li Linfu come in!"

Qiongyu answered from outside, and Li Linfu came back with big strides, smiled and cupped his hands and said: "I know that my mother will call me back!"

Chang Xi sneered and said: "Master Li is indeed smart, but have you ever heard the saying that being smart is misleading by being smart!"

Li Linfu hurriedly said: "This minister really wants to serve Concubine Hui sincerely! Please accept the minister and let the minister help you outside the court, so as to help the empress win the post!"

"Who said I'm going to be a queen?" Chang Xi carelessly rolled up a strand of black hair in her hand and played with it, looking careless.

Li Linfu said sternly: "The situation is forcing, the empress has no intention of becoming a queen, but she still has to bite the bullet and become a queen!"

"Oh? What do you mean by that?" Chang Xi stared at him, his pupils shrinking slowly.

Li Linfu said: "The empress is already in the same position as the empress, and the current situation is very obvious. Either you die or I die! It is better to act first, and the empress should deploy earlier to seize the second position, so as not to be passive! Besides, the empress will not be the main palace. Lord, how can the fetus in the womb be the prince!"

"The more you talk, the more outrageous it is! The prince is still respectful to me, and I don't want to do anything that will harm him." Chang Xi mocked slightly.

Li Linfu shook his head and said: "The prince's respect now does not mean that he will be respectful after he ascends the throne. Your majesty, don't forget that the prince's biological mother, Concubine Li, died because of your majesty. Now the prince has no power in his hands, and you are protected by your majesty. Only then can you rest easy and worry-free. One day, your majesty dies first and your empress dies, and the crown prince ascends the throne, how can your empress protect herself? Your majesty is well-versed in the past and the present, so don’t you hear the story of the empress Lu and Madam Qi?”

Chang Xi was silent.

At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang liked Mrs. Qi and did not like Empress Lu who had given birth to a prince. Mrs. Qi relied on Liu Bang's favor and repeatedly admonished her with tears, and asked Liu Bang to make her own son Zhao Wang Ruyi the prince and depose Lu. Empress Liu's biological son Liu Ying, and Liu Bang was indeed tempted, but in the end because of Shangshan Sihao's incident, the idea of ​​enshrining Zhao Wang Ruyi failed to come true. When she became emperor, Empress Lu changed her former kindness and took revenge. First, she locked Madam Qi with a big iron chain and sent her to Yongxiang to pound rice day and night. Then she poisoned Zhao Wang and Liu Ruyi to death. Cut off all of them, blind their eyes, cut off their tongues, prick their ears, make them into 'human pigs', and throw them into the toilet. It's really outrageous!
Li Linfu said: "Your Majesty, even if you don't worry about yourself, you have to think about the child in your womb!"

Chang Xi thought for a moment, then sighed and said, "Just tell me, what should I do?"

"The first step is to take the second place!" Li Linfu said solemnly.

Chang Xi frowned and said, "I know about this matter! By the way, I have something to tell you!"

Li Linfu's eyes lit up. When Chang Xi said this, it was clear that he wanted to reuse himself, so he hurriedly said: "Please give orders from Concubine Hui, I will definitely die!"

"I have a dead soldier's uniform and weapon in this palace. Please go and find out which mansion it is from. After this matter is done, I will order you the next one!" Chang Xi said, and ordered Qiongyu to general A wooden box was offered in the past.

Li Linfu took the wooden box with both hands, and said: "I will do it now, and please wait for the good news!" After saying that, he left in a hurry.

Chang Xi stared blankly at his back, wondering if it was right to cultivate her own power in this way.
