Chapter 437: Coercion and Temptation

Prime Minister Yuan became more and more confused, and the harem could not find out the details, only Concubine Yue.

Seeing that Yao Lao gave herself a look, Queen Liu retreated from everyone in the house, leaving only Prime Minister Yuan.

Prime Minister Yuan was silent, waiting for her to speak.

"Father." She said, "In the past few days, my daughter has been looking for you to enter the palace and have important matters to discuss." However, the fire in the harem has made people panic, and my daughter, as the mother of a country, urgently needs to calm people's hearts, so I can take the time to meet with you at this time. There is no need to say anything else about our father and daughter, my daughter wants to ask you, is the Yuan family willing to be loyal to their daughter? ”

Although she changed her name, she did not see the intimacy between her relatives at all.

As she spoke, she stared intently at Prime Minister Yuan's face, but she didn't see anything unusual.

Prime Minister Yuan knew that things were not simple, so he hesitated slightly, and then responded: "The Yuan family has always been loyal to the emperor and Niangniang. ”

Empress Liu smiled and said straight to the point: "Father, my daughter wants to completely make the third prince and Concubine Su disappear from the harem, and there are Dugu Jiumen behind them to help, and it is not easy to annihilate them in one fell swoop." With them, sooner or later something will go bad, and success or failure will be in one fell swoop. ”

Seeing Prime Minister Yuancheng's eyes move slightly, as if she was puzzled, she continued: "You must have heard of the emperor's favor for Concubine Su back then and Concubine Yue now, the heirs of the harem are thin, and my daughter heard that the emperor was seriously injured halfway, and now she is temporarily living in a small town to recuperate, and she will return to Beijing in a few days." When the emperor comes back, knowing that the harem has lost two princes, he will definitely investigate it deeply, and everything will become tricky at that time. Can you understand what your daughter meant? ”

Prime Minister Yuan had already set off a storm in his heart, but his face had always maintained his original appearance, so that people couldn't see other thoughts.

Queen Mother, this is to quietly remove the three princes and the moon concubine from the harem. There are not a few people who supported the three princes in the previous dynasty, and there is an unfathomable person in the harem, Concubine Yue, which is not simple.

He looked at Queen Liu's unwavering face, knowing that she had made up her mind to get rid of these two people. The anger in his eyes was hatred he had never seen before, all of which must have died because of the deceased prince.

The queen mother in front of her is no longer the master of the harem who is knowledgeable and reasonable, but just a simple mother.

When Concubine Su died, the emperor stayed next to her body for three days and three nights, as if he had entered a demonic barrier, trying to revive her by all means, and the degree of madness was unprecedented, and anyone could see the friendship there.

Three years have passed, and the emperor has let go of the past, but the third prince is the child of that woman after all, and he loves the house and Wu. If things work out, no one can guarantee what they will do if they let him know the truth.

He is pressing the net worth of the Yuanfu family.

Seeing Prime Minister Yuan bowing his head and pondering there, hesitating, Queen Liu's heart sank little by little.

The prime minister in front of her, although he is nominally her father, is not even an adoptive father. At the beginning, in order to let her marry into the royal family with dignity, the emperor found her a mother's family. Prime Minister Yuan did not take nothing, the promise given to him by the emperor was that one person was under ten thousand people, if it weren't for that, how could he be willing to accept her, an orphan girl with no relatives and no reason?

Later, she successfully sat in the back seat, and brought infinite glory to the Yuan family, and the relationship between her and the Yuan family began to change subtly, from the initial mutual use to mutual support, until it was inseparable, all of which was just because of a power word.

This old fox, who has been an official in the court for many years, is very prosperous and calculating, and all people can be played with by him. Every step he takes is for his own future, and she, after all, is not a member of the Yuan family, and it is not so simple to let him gamble all his net worth and life.

It's just that...... She hooked her lips slightly, slightly sarcastic... They have long been in the same boat, pulling each other, if she loses, they can't escape the involvement, does he think he can get out of this chess game?

"Mother, do you want to get rid of the two of them quietly?" Prime Minister Yuan said, and made a movement to wipe his neck.

"Father, I have a brother-in-law relationship with the Yuan family, and everything I do now is also for the good of the Yuan family. The daughter has already checked, and Hao'er died because of Concubine Yue. Now that he is gone, the throne will definitely fall to the three princes in the future. When he grows up and knows the truth about the death of his biological mother, the first thing he has to deal with is me and the Yuan family. ”

"We have no way out, the only way is to make this risky move. The emperor was seriously injured, and he didn't know when he would get better, and it would take at least ten days and half a month to return to the palace, and when the time came, there would be no room for recovery. Since Hongu has decided to take this step, there is no reason to give up halfway, you have to think about it. ”

Prime Minister Yuan's face changed... Queen Mother, is this a threat to him? For her own selfish desires, she risked the lives of everyone in the Yuan family, and this deal was not cost-effective.

Empress Liu suddenly leaned over and smiled: "You have been in the court for many years, and you understand the taste of power the most, but no matter how high you stand, you will eventually be trampled under your feet, don't you want to taste the taste of a higher place?" ”

Prime Minister Yuan was completely stunned.

On the contrary, in order to help the eldest prince avenge, the queen mother actually gave birth to such a rebellious idea. If it is heard, it is a capital offense to kill the head.

He lowered his head, his eyes dodged, pretending not to understand the meaning of her words: "Queen Mother, Weichen doesn't know what you're talking about, if there is nothing else, Weichen will go back first." ”

With that, Prime Minister Yuan turned around and walked outside the house.

"Father." Queen Liu's voice was raised, "You also know that this palace now has no children under her knees, and no one in the Liu family survived the incident back then." As soon as the matter is successful, the position in the future will belong to you and the people of the Yuan family. ”

He froze.

The taste of power, he has tasted it for decades, that position, he can't hope for in this life, but if he wants to sit in person, he has never had this thought.

Seeing that Prime Minister Yuan was a little shaken, Queen Liu smiled lightly: "Father should know that this person in this palace will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal." Today's words, this palace has only told you one person, if you accidentally leak out, the Yuan family will ......"

Prime Minister Yuan's face was blue and white, white and blue. Yes, the Yuan family has long been closely connected with the queen mother, if the queen mother insists on this, they will have only one end.

Rather than that, it's better to ...... It's just that there really is no other way to choose other than this path?
