Chapter 490
"Imperial concubine, don't thank you yet. Xiao Yichen looked sideways at the woman beside him who was still a little sluggish, and when she looked back at herself, she smiled and nodded lightly.
Although he didn't say anything, when he saw the smile on that Jun's face and the gesture of nodding slightly, Duanmuxiu suddenly felt that the uneasiness in his heart disappeared, and the whole person settled down in an instant.
"Ancestor Xie, Your Majesty, the concubines will do their best to take care of the chores of the harem for the First Holy Empress. Duanmuxiu squatted down elegantly and thanked him softly.
"Quick, quick. Xiu'er, come to me and have a drink with me. Xiao Lingtian, who was in a good mood, waved with a smile on his face, while Xiao Yichen had already arched his hand and walked back leisurely.
When passing by Yuwen Xiucheng's side, Xiao Yichen stopped, blinked his eyes a few times, and said to the old fox with a flat face who seemed to have no feelings: "Lord Zuo Xiang, actually, this king will also play the trick of 'retreating as advancing', but he usually disdains it." Because, this king has a sword in his hand, just draw the sword and cut off the one that doesn't have long eyes. It's rare to play today, I don't know if I can get into your old eyes?"
"Hehe, His Royal Highness laughed. The talents of the three highnesses are naturally invincible. Lao Chen was taught today, if he plays this kind of trick next time, he must find an opportunity when His Royal Highness is not in Shengjing. Yuwen Xiucheng raised his glass with a smile on his face.
"The left phase is the left phase, very comparable!"
"How can the Third Highness be an ordinary person?"
"Hahaha......"
The two foxes, all smiling at the moment, people who don't know, still think how close they are, who would have thought that they stabbed each other just now, but Xiao Yichen, who pretended to be dead first and then made trouble, stabbed the knife more skillfully.
laughed at each other for a while, and seemed to be reconciled, which made the originally somewhat stiff atmosphere suddenly relaxed, and Xiao Yichen also bowed his hand to Yuwen Xiucheng, and went to Xiao Feixing's seat.
"Little four, this king earns a seven phoenix hairpin for your mother's concubine, so you don't respect this king?" Xiao Yichen squeezed around Xiao Feixing, happily begging for wine, but let the others not think about anything.
At this moment, Xiao Feixing also had something to ask, and when he saw Xiao Yichen sending it to the door, he immediately poured wine into the purple gold bottle that Yu Xiaoxiang had just brought and sent it to his brother.
Picking up the wine glass, Xiao Yichen, who seemed to be drinking, lowered his voice and said: "Later, when the banquet is over, I will go to see your mother and tell her, 'If you have the phoenix seal, there will be trouble.'" I want to avoid retreating, wishful thinking. That is, it is unavoidable, and it is better to fight. Virtue is upright and invincible. ’”
Speaking of this, Xiao Yichen patted Xiao Feixing, who was bowing his head and contemplating, on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Shengjing was originally a vanity fair, if you want to protect yourself, you must also have that opportunity." The affairs of the harem depend on your mother's own concubine, and the affairs of the previous dynasty depend on you!
Xiao Feixing, who had an enlightenment in an instant, naturally understood the meaning of the brother in front of him. Just looking at today, because he was promoted to the title of prince, Yuwen couldn't sit still, and wanted to use the means of retreat to advance to cut off Duanmuxiu's future path to the throne.
Yuwen Xiucheng's move is actually a good move. How could this old fox not know that Xiao Lingtian didn't want to succeed at all? Previously, he proposed to make Duanmu Xiu a successor, but in fact, it was very clear that he would not succeed at all. However, his purpose was to let Duanmuxiu himself say the words of pushing, so that today, the important ministers of the court and the central government gathered, and everyone witnessed it with their own eyes, even if Xiao Lingtian wanted to succeed him in the future, it would be impossible to put forward Duanmuxiu as a candidate, so who were the remaining candidates? Could it really be that he would get a woman picked up on the side of the road as a successor? No, only Yu Wenqi! This is his "retreat as advance"!
However, not everyone in the harem is stupid. Just like the Queen Mother, she realized Yuwen Xiucheng's purpose almost immediately, so she immediately put forward this good proposal, using "the plan is the plan"! Since you want to succeed you, that's okay, anyway, the girl of the Duanmu family is also pleasing to the eye, so just go with the flow.
It's just that Xiao Lingtian, whether he understands or doesn't understand Yuwen Xiucheng's intentions, really doesn't want anyone to become the successor, so he is always hesitating. And Xiao Yichen made a move higher, just waiting, waiting to see Yuwen Xiucheng's performance, until there was a loophole in his words,
This is the case, which seems to be reckless, but in fact, it blocked the old fox's words, and used the crime of "transgression" to desperately put a basin on the old fox's head!
Immediately afterwards, he simply used the words of the so-called reward, without improving his rank, which was in line with Xiao Lingtian's mind and the queen mother's thoughts, and allowed Xiao Feixing's mother to be a head taller than Yu Wenqi. In this way, no matter what other people in the harem think, on the surface, they must be more obedient to Duanmu Xiu.
Just like what Xiao Yichen said to Xiao Feixing, others have already begun to stab the first knife, if you want to retreat, if you want to dodge, I am afraid that it is also wishful thinking, repeated retreat will only fuel the arrogance of others, it is better to fight. At least, in the current "battle situation", Duanmuxiu stands on the high point of morality and prestige! And what can really make Duanmuxiu sit firmly in the position is still to look at Xiao Feixing in the former court. As long as this prince's name does not fall, then no one will dare to do anything to his biological mother in the harem! As for the secret...... Since ancient times, the intrigue of the harem has been as common as eating and drinking, and there is nothing to do when you are full, a group of women are together, and it is strange if you don't fight to the death!
I understood what Xiao Yichen meant, and I also knew that this brother had already paved the road, as for how to go down, it could only be seen by their respective abilities. Xiao Feixing raised his arms gratefully at the moment, and was about to thank him, but he was stopped by the smiling man.
"My own brother, what are you doing all this nonsense. Later, I will appease your mother and let her understand this truth. Xiao Yichen said that he held the table with his hands, squatted on the purple gold bottle, took the little beauties around him, and went to the seats of those generals in a leisurely manner, and laughed loudly with them.
"Brother Emperor thanked Brother Three!" Looking at Xiao Yichen's figure, Xiao Feixing whispered softly.
……
"Big villain, why did you help the mother concubine of the Fourth Highness refuse to be the successor, but why did you raise her rank? If that's the case, wouldn't it be better to directly add fuel to the fire and turn her into the successor queen. On the way back to Lingxiao Palace, the little girl who had endured for a long time finally couldn't help but start opening her mouth to ask.
