Chapter 170: Winning People's Hearts
Luo Liyao only continued to smile, as if to say to herβ"Don't worry, now...... We're just getting started. β
"Let's just send something to Shenchu Guojun, and really offend the eldest prince and the Yongjia directly?" Tianji angrily dusted off the non-existent dust on his sleeve, very worried about his future, "Although we are still on the side of the prince for the time being, there is no need to stand so dead, right?" What if in the end, the Shenchu monarch still didn't resist the temptation of Concubine Yonggui and passed the throne to the eldest prince? Then isn't it the future Shenchu monarch who we offended?! β
"It's impossible for the left and right to be good friends with them, so I just tear my face." Tang Haoqi pulled the too cumbersome ornaments on his body with one hand, and pushed him to his residence, "Are you stupid, people have been killing us for so long, do you still want to have a hot face and a cold ass?" β
"Your analogy is disgustingβ" Tianji was speechless, but still retorted to him, "Wouldn't our situation be more dangerous if we offended them harshly?" β
"It's okay, you don't really think that His Highness is stupid, do you?" Tang Haoqi pushed the door in, pulled him into the hall, looked around for a while, then quickly closed the door, and said in a low voice, "You move your elm little head yourself, even if we try not to confront them, will they easily let us go?" They'll just think we're scared of them, and they'll be even more violent, and if we break with them at the beginning, if something happens to us, they'll be the first to suspect them β in a sense, we'll be safer. β
"I don't know what you're talking about?" Tianji rolled his eyes, took off his complicated coat, and put it aside casually, "It's just that this Shenchu monarch is a monarch after all, where is it so easy to fool?" How could he not see His Highness's hostility towards the Yong family? How could he not see that His Royal Highness was just stirring up the relationship between him and Concubine Yong? β
"So what? Didn't he say nothing? Tang Haoqi yawned and threw those redundant ornaments on the table one by one, and made a crisp sound in the collision of pearls and jades, "If he doesn't say anything, he also knows that what His Highness said makes sense...... The Yong family is not like the Meng family of Tianqi, they have been proud for too long, and they are about to forget their roots...... The house of the powerful is pampered and arrogant, which every emperor does not want to see. β
"No wonder ......" Cao Han remembered the very angry but helpless appearance of Yongye just now, and his mood was even better, and he held Luo Liyao's arm affectionately, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, "In the past, the palace always heard people talk about how smart Princess Zhenli was, but today I really believe it." β
"It's not that Niangniang doesn't know how to do it, but she cares too much about His Majesty's opinion." Luo Liyao lowered her eyes, let her pull herself, and walked to the depths of the imperial garden, "Niangniang thinks...... Yongguifei is her biggest dependence
What is the battle? β
"Your Majesty has a deep affection for Empress Yuan, and every time I think of her dying of childbirth because of childbirth with the eldest prince, I am always very kind to Concubine Yong and the eldest prince." Cao Han glanced at her and laughed at herself, "It's also strange that there are no brothers at all in this palace - since the death of my father in this palace, the Yong family has dominated the court...... Now, who would have thought of my Cao family? β
Luo Liyao: "......"
"It's a pity that a pair of children in this palace lived on people's noses when they were young, and they couldn't get rid of the shadows when they grew up." Seeing that she was only silent and did not answer her words, Cao Han wiped the corners of her eyes and continued, "Now that Ling Ze has married the county lord of Liran, the future life between this palace and Ling Xiang will finally be much better." β
Luo Liyao: "Niangniang is the queen of the main palace, and no matter how favored Concubine Yonggui is, she is also a side room, so you really don't have to be afraid of her." β
"The princess is golden and jade, and it is also your queen mother who protects you too well." Cao Han shook his head lightly and pulled her to sit down on the edge of the pavilion, "In the deep palace, status seems to be the most useful, but it is also the most powerless. β
"So...... What is the mother for? Luo Liyao smiled, and remembered the disappointed expression she had shown behind Chu Zhaoxi before, and felt a little closer to her in her heart, "Is it because of the prince and the princess of Xiang, or because of ...... Your Majesty? β
"In the past, it was to fight for the Cao family, but later when I had children, it was more because of them. As for Your Majesty......" Cao Han smiled lightly, his fingers unconsciously clutched his cuffs, which meant more bitterness and helplessness, "That's it...... The left and right are something that Hongu can never count on. β
Luo Liyao lowered her eyes and repeated softly: "You can never count on ......"
"Princess Zhenli didn't know, she ...... back then" Cao Han shook his head, as if he wanted to say something, but he still stopped his mouth and said, "Maybe from the beginning, it was wrong - this palace...... is just a layman, and he doesn't have the courage of the eldest princess Zhaoying at all. β
Luo Liyao heard her take the initiative to mention Chu Zhaoying, and her heart moved: "Niangniang actually thinks that this is courage." β
"Although Princess Zhaoying is famous for being dignified and virtuous, she has dared to love and hate like that before." Cao Han patted her hand, and his tone was envious and nostalgic, "When Emperor Tianqi personally came to Shenchu to ask for marriage, this palace heard her say many times - 'He had a hard time in the past, so I have to treat him more sincerely'...... It's a pity that she did all her tenderness and failed to resist her old love. β
Luo Liyao: "......"
"She and Bengong are no longer the girls who fell in love with each other back then, but if you change to Bengong, you can't make the same choice as she did - this really takes courage." Cao Han looked at her and smiled apologetically, "The princess hasn't been hired yet, and she must not be either."
There is a man who likes it, he can't understand this. β
"It doesn't matter." Luo Liyao lowered her head slightly, and asked as if unintentionally, "Before Niangniang...... Are you familiar with the queen mother? β
"Back then, Bengong and Jinluan were both the companions of Princess Zhaoying." Cao Han couldn't help but smile, her originally somewhat haggard face suddenly became a little more colorful because of this smile, and she could vaguely see her beautiful appearance when she was young, "If not...... Bengong has already made a marriage, and he was going to accompany her to Tianqi. β
Luo Liyao nodded lightly, knowing that she was using Chu Zhaoying to get into a relationship with herself, and at the same time, she was hinting at what she had done back then-after all, although this matter was a taboo in Shen Chu, she would not deliberately mention it, but she believed that if Luo Liyao intended to investigate, she would definitely be able to know.
Now she is deeply suppressed by the eternal night, just like Chu Zhaoying and Zhao Tianyuan back then.
Luo Liyao is Chu Zhaoying's daughter, and she will definitely be closer to her because of this, and the "alliance" between them will be more stable.
It's just that her wishful thinking may not work-Luo Liyao only nodded, and didn't ask any more questions, nor did she say much about Chu Zhaoying. She had already heard about such an old incident from Ye Luoqing, and she also knew that Cao Han was in such a complicated situation as Chu Zhaoying, but she would definitely not help Cao Han without hesitation because of this.
Cao Han's purpose was obvious, and his words were also very sincere, and he was even really trying to impress Luo Liyao......
She is indeed very serious about wooing Luo Liyao, because she also knows that this is a rare opportunity for herself, if she can't use Luo Liyao to completely suppress the Yong family this time, a Liran county lord can't really control the situation at all.
But she forgot the most important point - Luo Liyao belongs to Tianqi, even if Luo Liyao will help her, it will definitely not be just because of her sincere words, but real interests.
Cao Han wanted to suppress the Yong family and regain the glory that belonged to the Cao family, and Luo Liyao was naturally happy to help her - after all, the Yong family can be regarded as the mainstay of the Shen Chu country, if Shen Chu loses the Yong family, it will be like Tianqi without the Meng family, and it will definitely hurt his vitality.
Just like the smile she had at the Eternal Night, everything ...... We're just getting started.
"Get out!" Eternal Night slammed his crown to the ground and ordered, "Get out of here!" β
"But......" The maid had never seen her so angry, and as soon as she came in from outside, she was frightened by the broken jade, and hesitated and didn't know what to say, "Niangniang, ....... outside"
"No one in this palace today!"
Eternal Night ripped off all the hairpins left on his head, and his long black and shiny hair was soft
The ground drooped, and her somewhat distorted gorgeous face felt very hideous just by looking at it.
The maid kept stepping back with some fear, and hesitated: "Niangniang......"
The maid's backward steps came to an abrupt halt when she was held up by the man behind her, and she turned her head to look at the person behind her, and hurriedly saluted, and her mood instantly became as elated as if she had seen a rescuer.
"Alright, you can get out."
The man smiled slightly, withdrew the hand against the maid's back, and set his eyes on the eternal night who was sitting on the throne and was in anger - he was an elegant and easy-going man, but his eyes were slightly raised, and when he looked at people, he naturally had a bewitching taste, which made his whole face look a little charming that belonged to a man, and it was seven or eight points similar to the face of eternal night.
The maid glanced at him secretly, then blushed unconsciously, and hurriedly bowed and retreated: "Yes......"
"What's there to be angry about?" The man watched as the maid closed the door of the palace, and then walked gently towards the eternal night, squatted in front of her, and chuckled, "But it's just to make the queen proud for a few days." β
Eternal Night snorted and didn't speak.
The man stretched out his hand, skillfully picked up her delicate chin, rubbed her cheeks unconsciously with his fingertips, and coaxed softly: "He won't come to you again today, right?" β
"Today, he gave me a big faceless face in public, where will he come to see me again?"
Eternal Night patted the man's hand that raised his chin angrily, and glared at himβbut her gaze was not angry, but more coquettish and angry, as if she was complaining about something in front of her lover.
"That Princess Zhenli of Tianqi is really annoyingβif I have the chance, I will definitely destroy her!"
The man naturally understood her very well, so he directly bullied her, confronted her forehead, and even kissed her on the cheek.
If the maid had been here just now, she would have been so frightened that she would have screamed.
"Don't worry." The man smiled lightly and lowered his hand, "No matter how powerful she is, this is not Tianqi who allows her to be powerful...... Isn't it, auntie? β
