Chapter 1497: Digging Holes Everywhere

After listening to the Queen's words, Lianyi raised her eyebrows. Obviously, the matter about the marriage from the previous dynasty had not been spread to the harem. It was probably Emperor Qian who did it deliberately, but this also made it easier for Lianyi to sow discord.

"Mother, the daughter can share the worries of her father and the emperor, and she can help the emperor's younger brother. She never feels wronged. However, the Nangong family's approach is really unbearable. Whenever something happens, they seek the mother. They even want the princess of a country to be a stepping stone for them. Do you think your father will be willing? Do they take your father too seriously?

Your aunt who married into the royal family seems to be a tool in their hands. When good things happen, they don’t think of the queen. When they encounter difficulties, they come to you to cry and beg, forcing you to deal with the aftermath of the Nangong family. When will this happen? Is it a head?

Mother, you are not an alarmist. Your current support is your father, and your future support will be Zhao Ning.

Your father will give you dignity and keep you at the top of the harem. You must not let down your father's expectations. After all, your father has many concubines and many princes. There is only one person who can really sit in that position.

The father has promised his daughter that he will teach Zhao Ning with all his heart, and you cannot hold back.

If Zhao Ning wants to take that position in the future, he will indeed need the assistance of the Nangong family, but he cannot rely solely on the Nangong family. If the imperial power falls away and the remaining princes find reasons to criticize Zhao Ning, there will inevitably be another war. Bloody and bloody, this is definitely not what you want to see. "

After hearing Ripple's words, the queen's eyes were a little dazed. She then realized that in less than a month, her daughter had completely changed. Her words were sharp and her knowledge had improved, and she no longer looked like her own daughter.

"Lianyi, who told you all this?"

the queen asked.

Ripple showed a harmless smile and said:

"Mother, if my daughter didn't say it before, it doesn't mean she doesn't understand. It's just that she has the protection of you and her father. She just wants to be carefree in this life, but she didn't expect that things will go against her wishes. The daughter will leave her mother after all. Naturally, she will have more troubles in the future. With a pair of eyes and an extra pair of ears, you can last longer in Luo Panguo and buy Zhao Ning more time."

"Anping, I've wronged you."

The queen touched Ripple's hair lovingly and said.

"My daughter is not wronged, but she is a little worried about you. She will not be able to live happily with you. You should think twice before doing anything, think more about Zhao Ning, and never do anything he doesn't like."

Lianyi continued to brainwash.

"The Queen Mother knows that the only people I can rely on are you and Zhao Ning, and I will definitely not hold you back."

"The eldest prince has arrived!"

The eunuch's voice came from outside the door, and then the two of them saw Zhao Ning walking in a hurry.

"My son, I have met my mother and my imperial sister."

Zhao Ning bowed and then looked up at the Queen and Lianyi. His eyes were bright and there seemed to be a trace of anxiety in his eyes, but he hid them well.

The queen was very happy. Recently, her son had been too busy, and the tutor had added an additional course. He didn't even have time to go to his grandfather's house to attend the flower-viewing banquet. He also didn't come to greet her for some days.

"Ning'er, how have you been lately? Why do I think you've lost a lot of weight?"

Zhaoning saw the calmness on Lianyi's face, then lifted up her yellow robe and sat across from Lianyi, smiling and saying to the queen:

"Mother, everything is fine with my son. His recent schoolwork has indeed been a lot heavier, but he has learned some things about governing the country. My son likes it very much. He uses one more bowl of rice than usual. You said that your son has lost weight. I think he has grown taller. So it looks like it’s been reduced.”

Ripple also smiled and answered:

"Mother, I see that my brother looks good and has indeed grown in stature. Don't worry. He will definitely eat well when he dines with the Tutor."

"Sister Huang is right. Today there is exactly an hour of rest, so my son came over to pay his respects to his mother. What were you and Sister Huang talking about just now?"

Qian Zhaoning asked seemingly casually.

"It's not a big deal. It's Mrs. Nangong who came to visit the Queen Mother."

Ripple also answered casually.

"Oh? But for Nangong Qing's matter?"

Zhao Ning continued to ask, he naturally had his own source of information.

The queen nodded and didn't want to say more.

Ripple's eyes rolled, but he said somewhat unhappily:

"Nangong Qing is so shameless. After doing something embarrassing, he actually tried to cover it up by marrying this princess. Fortunately, my mother did not agree."

Qian Zhaoning's mood fluctuated. Finally, when he heard the queen's rejection, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then said coldly:

"The Queen Mother did the right thing. How could the Royal Sister's happiness be left in the hands of such a person? The Queen Mother must not be soft-hearted."

"Is this how I make you siblings worried? Since I have refused, I will not let the Nangong family have the opportunity to get close to your sister. Recently, you two have been staying in the palace and cannot go anywhere."

"Yes, Queen Mother!"

The two of them agreed simultaneously, had lunch with the queen, and then left Fengyi Palace.

"Sister Huang, I heard from my father that he wants you to go to the wedding instead of me."

"Well, it was Luo Panguo's envoy who brought this up first. They probably heard the message that my dowry was three cities, so they changed the target."

Lianyi replied calmly.

"Is this done intentionally by the imperial sister or does the emperor also know about it?"

Zhao Ning asked the key.

"This is a trap that my father and I jointly set for Luo Panguo. As long as they covet the territory of Daqian, they will definitely take the bait voluntarily, which will just solve your crisis."

Ripple admitted generously that she was not someone who did good deeds without leaving her name behind.

"What should you do if after you get married, the other party finds out that you don't have three cities to accompany you?"

Zhao Ning asked immediately.

Lianyi pursed her lips and said with a smile:

"You are not joking! I will use three cities to plunge Luo Panguo into civil strife and buy you time to grow. You must work hard!"

"Sister Royal."

Qian Zhaoning didn't know how to respond.

Ripple patted his shoulder as usual and said:

"Go back and study hard with Tai Tu. Don't let down your father's expectations. Also, be careful with the Nangong family, and don't let the young lady from the Nangong family have the opportunity to get close to you. In the future, the Nangong family may not be your help, but will instead be a hindrance. You, you have to know how to choose, and if you don’t understand something, ask Father.”

"Yes, my brother took note of it."

Qian Zhaoning agreed obediently, and then watched Lianyi leave. He turned back to the Prince's Courtyard to study. He still had a lot to learn.

Mrs. Nangong personally handed the letter to Nangong Yan, and then waited aside. She still had a glimmer of hope.

Nangong Yan, who had a beautiful beard, sighed in his heart after reading his sister's letter. It seemed that they had to give up Princess Shang's plan this time. After all, compared with the future crown prince, Princess Shang was just the icing on the cake. In addition to helping the Nangong family survive, After this crisis, it has no greater effect.

"Master, how are you? Why can't you help Qing'er?"

Mrs. Nangong asked.

Nangong Yan handed the letter to his wife and said angrily:

"look by youself!"

After reading the letter, Mrs. Nangong was completely discouraged. She knew very well how her master would choose, or how the Nangong family would choose. An emperor who would retain half of the Nangong family's blood in the future was more important.

See you tomorrow~~
