"Besides, this daughter of Cheng Sihou was asked by Cheng Sihou to marry His Royal Highness. At this level, it seems that it will be much more loyal than the Third Highness proposed. An Zhilian thought for a moment and continued.

When Xiao Qisheng heard his words, he just nodded quietly and did not speak. An Zhihuan was not in a hurry, drinking tea on the side and waiting for him to speak.

"The advantage of the queen's support is not obvious. Now, Concubine Shu is the most favored by the emperor's side. Concubine Shu has no heirs now, and she is attached to Concubine Cui, so it seems that if Concubine Shu blows some wind in the emperor's ears, the status of the third brother is not as good as that of the fifth brother. Xiao Qisheng finally spoke.

"Actually, at present, no one has won the biggest force in the capital. The harem is unpredictable and changing with each passing day, and it is not a matter of a moment who is favored and who is out of favor. Xiao Qisheng lifted Erlang's legs, and the expression on his face was a little calmer.

"The biggest force?" An Zhilian frowned and asked puzzled.

"The Weiguo family has made countless meritorious contributions, and the daughter of the Weiguo family has not yet married." Xiao Qisheng thought of Zhao Lingshu, and there was a smile in his eyes.

When An Zhilian heard it, he also thought of Zhao Lingshu, who is the final destination of that woman with outstanding temperament?

The two then discussed the situation between the DPRK and China and the distribution of forces.

Xiao Qisheng's right hand knocked on his leg and said, "The third brother has been moving too much and too much recently. We've got to find a way to start with him first. ”

The black shadow who was eavesdropping by the window came to Cui Guifei's dormitory, and quickly described Xiao Qisheng's recent situation in Cui Guifei's ear.

"His Royal Highness the Sixth has only stayed in the house recently, and when he goes out, he only goes to Ci'an Temple to worship the Buddha and incense, or to which wine shop and which Qinglou in the capital. Today, An Zhilian, the sister-in-law of the county lord of Anling, went to the palace, and the two just sat together to talk about the wind and snow. ”

Cui Guifei listened and believed what he said, but she was not at ease: "You continue to stare at the Sixth Highness, if there is any trouble, come over and tell me immediately." ”

"Yes." After answering, the black shadow immediately left the dormitory and hid in the darkness again.

"Go and call the Fifth Highness, and say that the palace wants him to accompany him for dinner." Cui Guifei instructed a palace maid who was waiting beside her.

Since the fifth prince Xiao Qiyun learned that Chu Lanxi had married Xiao Qiming as a side concubine, he borrowed wine all day to burn his sorrows. Hearing the words of the palace maid sent by Cui Guifei, he reluctantly put down his wine glass and followed the palace maid to see Cui Guifei.

Concubine Cui Guifei had already instructed the palace maid to set up the dinner. Seeing Xiao Qiyun staggering over with a body of wine, he was displeased.

"Why are you drinking again? With you like this, how can you beat other princes? How can you gain your father's appreciation and achieve great things? Cui Guifei reprimanded.

Xiao Qiyun was not angry, nor was he aggrieved, but just dealt with a few words without being salty, and began to pour wine again.

Now that the major forces in the capital are choosing the prince to be attached to, the last dragon chair can only sit alone, either you die or I live, and you will not be unclear about the stakes. ”

"Yun'er, the prince was born to fight for the throne, only when you win the position of the prince, can you get what you want, and this palace can live a good life of being a mother and a child."

Xiao Qiyun was indifferent, he turned his wine glass, as if he didn't hear Cui Guifei's words: "Queen Mother, I don't have the slightest interest in the throne. ”

Cui Guifei looked at her son with an expression that a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, and hated that iron could not become steel: "This palace knows that you have no intention of taking the throne." However, Chu Lanxi, whom you like, is married to Xiao Qiming. If you ascend to the throne, don't say a Chu Lanxi, it's the entire Chu family, isn't it all yours? ”

When Xiao Qiyun heard this, his drunk eyes instantly cleared up.

Cui Guifei looked at her son's sober appearance, and secretly congratulated herself that she guessed correctly: "However, if you want to fight for the throne, the only choice now is to find a way to marry Zhao Lingshu." If you marry her, you will have the entire Weiguo Gong clan behind you to support you, which is equivalent to sitting on half of the throne. ”

Xiao Qiyun understood how powerful Wei Guogong was now, and after weighing it, he thought that Cui Guifei's words made sense, so he agreed.
