Chapter 181: Betrayal

After that, he turned around and walked towards the courtyard, "Go and move a chair out, the weather is good today, bask in the sun here, this palace wants to catch up with Miss Xiao." As soon as these words came out, Xiao Wanyao couldn't help sneering in her heart, reminiscing? Scold...... How ironic.

Soon the eunuch took out a chair from inside, and a round stool was placed on one side, Xiao Wanyao got up and slowly walked over to stand still. The queen glanced at her, "Sit down, the emperor has decreed that you will be named a concubine, and then we will be called sisters, and you don't have to be too restrained." Xiao Wanyao blessed her body, "Thank you to the queen." Then he sat down on a round bench.

She kept staring at the ground, the whole person looked very plain, and there was no trace of sharpness in her eyes, but like an obedient little maid, Xue Qingyi stared at her, and then asked the people around her to leave, leaving only her personal palace maid to serve, and then slowly spoke, "Originally, I thought you would be with Tianao!" Unexpectedly, in the end, you still returned to the palace. ”

She still sat like that, silent, she knew that the queen was going to deal with her, and it wasn't just a battle in the harem.

is also because of the grievances between the left and right prime ministers, presumably the right prime minister already knows the purpose of his return, and he also knows more about Tang Siqi's plans after bringing himself to attack.

Tang Siqi wants to balance the power between the left and right prime ministers, so that they can restrain each other without threatening their own status, but in recent years, because Xue Tianao has military power in his hands, the power of the right prime minister has become more and more powerful, and he even began to attack the left prime minister, and he had to start investigating the left prime minister under the evidence and pressure of the right prime minister.

As an official, no one dares to say that he is incorruptible, Prime Minister Zuo naturally has something bad about him, but this is not the time to get rid of him, as soon as Tang Siqi came back, he issued an order to make Xiao Wanyao a concubine, and it was also to give Prime Minister Zuo the strength to compete with the right prime minister.

Tang Siqi thought so, Prime Minister Right knew, and Xiao Wanyao naturally saw it clearly. That's why she faced this qiē coldly, she already had a free body, but she came back here as a pawn, and it was actually not without fun. See how many people you can still be used for.

Xiao Wanyao said slowly, "If you can choose, the grass people want to live the life of ordinary people." If the queen can help the grass people do it, the grass people will be grateful. ”

The queen's eyes narrowed suddenly, "What? With surprise, Xiao Wanyao's words spoke her mind, and there was also a touch of sarcasm that made her feel extremely harsh, "What the emperor gave you is a favor, not every woman can get it, and you don't seem to be grateful to the emperor when you say this." ”

Xiao Wanyao glanced up at the queen slightly, with a smile on her face, still in a gentle tone, "The emperor's favor is greater than the sky, how can the grass people be so ignorant of the sky and the earth, they are naturally grateful." I don't know why the queen mother misinterprets the meaning of the grass people so much? ”

The queen was speechless suddenly, as if she had deliberately dragged her into the water, and the anger in her heart rose suddenly, and she got up to leave. Xiao Wanyao also stood up, "The grass people have been unwell recently, so they won't send the queen mother." ”

Xue Qingyi glanced at her coldly, left with a belly full of anger, and as soon as she walked out of the purple condensation point, she said angrily, "I haven't sealed the concubine yet, she is so arrogant, I want to see how long she can be arrogant in this harem?" The emperor just wants to use her, there are many concubines in the harem, which emperor doesn't like not to be unfavored, does he really think he has the emperor's heart? ”

After Xue Qingyi left, Xiao Wanyao smiled faintly, and the palace maid beside her hurriedly came to her side when she saw the queen mother leaving angrily, "Miss Xiao, the slave maid was very angry when she saw the queen mother leave just now, didn't the girl say something that shouldn't be said?" ”

Xiao Wanyao is about to be crowned a concubine, they don't want to offend her, and she was made a concubine as soon as she came, and she is still the daughter of Prime Minister Zuo, and she still wants to follow this master in the palace in the future, but she didn't expect that she would offend the queen as soon as she came, this is not a wise move, could it be that this Xiao girl can't get along with her future glory and wealth?

Xiao Wanyao smiled faintly, "I didn't say anything excessive, I just told a few words of truth." To be honest, it always sounds a little uncomfortable. ”

After speaking, she turned around and walked into the house, she was not worried about her safety at the moment, because Tang Siqi would not kill her now, even if there was a battle in the harem, she had just come here, and there was no handle in their hands, besides, she had saved the life of the Queen Mother in the palace before, and with the Queen Mother here, no one would dare to touch her for a while.

Here, the Chu army broke through Xue Tianao's army again, and drove straight into the capital of Wei that would soon threaten the Wei State, and the Right Prime Minister's Mansion was also anxious, and sent people to write letters to Xue Tianao several times without replying, Tang Siqi also sent someone to make a will, but he couldn't get news of Xue Tianao.

Tang Siqi was furious when he heard the news of the defeat in the early dynasty, and immediately dismissed Xue Tianao from his position as a general, sent someone to bring him back to the capital, and ordered Xiao Ze to lead an army to stop the Chu army. Xue Tianao was soon taken back to the capital, and under the protection of the right prime minister, Tang Siqi did not convict him immediately, but just put him under house arrest in the right prime minister's mansion.

On this day, after the next dynasty, Tang Siqi personally summoned the right prime minister, and it was not until the evening that the right prime minister returned to his house. The people at home were naturally anxious, but after coming back, he went to the study alone, ignoring the feelings of others, and called Xue Tianao into the study at dinner.

Xue Tianao naturally knew that his father must be worried about his own affairs, and after entering, he was silent, and the right prime minister sat on the chair in front of the table, staring at him coldly.

"As for your defeat, I will no longer pursue it, I don't want to say anything more after the matter has come to this point, you know that no matter what crime you commit, I will try my best to protect you, but you must know that your father is not the emperor, even if the power is tilted towards the government and the opposition, it is under one person. You know that the emperor wants to weaken the strength of our Xiao family, why did you ...... at this time?"

Speaking of this, he stopped abruptly and took a deep breath, "That's it, I didn't expect you to be so uncompetitive." But there's another way to save your life. "Xue Tianao raised his eyes slightly, he lost on the battlefield and lost a large territory of the Wei State, he committed a capital crime, why didn't Tang Siqi take this opportunity to kill him?" So, he also has times when he is soft-hearted? ”

The right prime minister sighed again, "Do you know Gong Qing?" Xue Tianao was slightly stunned, "I know, but what does this matter have to do with her?" The right prime minister stared at his son, "Do you know that she is the eldest princess of Yan Kingdom?" As soon as the words came out, Xue Tianao was also really taken aback, and his eyes narrowed slightly, "There is such a thing, why do you know?" ”

The right prime minister continued, "It was the emperor who sued me, and Yan Guo's promise to withdraw troops was also conditional. Xue Tianao had an ominous premonition, "What conditions?" ”

"You want to marry Gong Qing, Wei and Yan." Xue Tianao couldn't help laughing, "So, it's not possible to make peace with Chu Guo, and now you want to make peace with Yan Guo?" Why don't you just send a princess to Yan Guo? Why me? The right prime minister gritted his teeth, looked at his cynical son and said angrily, "She is already your woman, can you admit it?" She is pregnant with your child, do you know? ”

Xue Tianao was stunned, "No, how is it possible!" I ...... with her."

Suddenly, he seemed to remember that there was indeed a night, he was drunk and a little unconscious, but he remembered being with Wan Yao, but when he woke up the next day, he was in his bed, and it was a little strange at the time, but he didn't think much about it afterwards, could it be that night...... Gong Qing?

Seeing Xue Tianao's surprised and silent appearance, Prime Minister Right took a deep breath, "If this is really the case, it is not a bad thing, as long as you marry her, you can save your life, and it is also beneficial to our Xiao family."

Tomorrow, I will play the emperor, and say that you have agreed, and the emperor will decree marriage later, so you can wait quietly at home. After speaking, the right prime minister turned around and walked out, Xue Tianao still wanted to say something, but when he spoke, he was the only one left in the room.

Gong Qing - he took a sinful step.

The emperor learned that Xue Tianao admitted the matter, and also agreed to the matter of harmony, so he issued an order to the right prime minister's mansion, once the matter came out, everyone was shocked, but when it reached Xiao Wanyao's ears, her appearance was indifferent and a little speechless, "Oh! That was her biggest reaction.

After the holy decree was issued, Xue Tianao also regained his free body, which can be regarded as a meritorious service. When Xue Qingyi heard about this, he immediately summoned him to the palace.

Xue Tianao came to Xue Qingyi, in addition to reminiscing about the past, the main thing to talk about was about the princess of Yan Kingdom, "You must get married as soon as possible, otherwise the princess will not be known about being pregnant, and she will be laughed at and generous when the time comes." Xue Tianao smiled coldly, "So what?" ”

Xue Qingyi frowned, "This is related to the face of the royal family, only a few people know about this matter, as long as you are sure that the child is yours, when the time comes, wait for the child to be born and delay it for a few days before making it public, naturally no one will think much about it." ”

Xue Tianao sat on the chair below, boredly playing with the tassel under the jade pendant, "Got it." He replied lightly. Looking at Xue Tianao's appearance, Xue Qingyi opened his mouth and asked, "Do you know about the emperor appointing her as a concubine?" The tassel in his hand suddenly stopped, and the whole person was stunned for a moment, still keeping his head down, "I know." ”

Xue Qingyi looked at him, "Are you still treating her like you used to at the moment?" Xue Tianao took a deep breath and stood up, "If the queen mother is fine, the grass people will go back first." ”

After speaking, he turned around and walked out, Xue Tianao was also spoiled since he was a child, he knew that Xue Qingyi would not pursue him in terms of etiquette, and it was more casual to be casual in front of her. "You wait."

Xue Qingyi stopped him, "I know you still have her in your heart, but she is already the emperor's person, and all you can think about now is the princess of Yan Kingdom, which is beneficial to you." ”

Xue Tianao turned around and looked at her and smiled, "Didn't the queen mother always want me to take her away?" When the time comes, I will also help you get rid of a fierce rival in the harem? ”

Xue Qingyi's eyes cooled down suddenly, "Qinghe, you are talking more and more openly, do you know where this is?" Xue Tianao sighed speechlessly, "Got it." A qiē listen to you. ”

Just as he was about to leave, Xue Tianao suddenly stopped and turned back to the queen, and approached her, "Sister, good sister, you should feel sorry for your brother and do your brother a favor, okay?" ”

After all, Xue Qingyi watched him grow up, and he also understood his temperament, "You will walk over there in the secluded garden for a while, you have a special identity now, so as not to let people see what kind of basket you are behind your back." ”

Xue Tianao smiled, clasped his fists and bowed deeply, "Thank you for the grace of the queen." With that, he turned and left. R1154
