Chapter 210: Start the layout
"Princess, have you really promised the Queen Mother?"
In the Yunwu Palace, Qiu'er couldn't help frowning when she heard Yun Qingyan finish talking about the situation in the Empress Dowager Liu's palace.
The princess agreed to the Queen Mother so easily. But what if the Queen Mother regrets it a day later?
"The Queen Mother just said something that was not wrong, that is, if these gossips in the court are allowed to continue, I am afraid that it will not be long before my father's side will begin to loosen."
At that time, even if he and Empress Chu strongly oppose it, I am afraid that Emperor Yun will release Empress Dowager Liu sooner or later.
"Princess, but even then, it will be able to delay for a while. If the queen mother is released now, the slave is still a little uneasy in her heart. Qiu'er looked at Yun Qingyan and said, "Anyway, the slave maid thinks that the Queen Mother may not give up." ”
"You're much sharper and smarter now than you were before." Yun Qingyan looked at Qiu'er with a smile in her eyes, and her tone revealed a bit of appreciation.
"Princess, if you think what the slave maid said makes sense, then why ......"
Qiu'er's words were not finished yet, looking at the smile on Yun Qingyan's face, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind the next moment, and she suddenly reacted.
"Princess, did you just know that the Queen Mother was likely to regret it, so you deliberately agreed to her?"
"Empress Dowager Liu is scheming, how can she easily agree to my request after being in this harem for so many years." Yun Qingyan paused for a moment, "What's more, since the last incident, the queen mother and I undoubtedly have the handle of her poisoning in our hands, if your handle is held in someone else's hand, I don't know when it will be revealed, can you live in peace with others with peace of mind." ”
"Since you understand, princess, then why do you have to go on this trip and talk so much to the Queen Mother."
"If I don't put forward those three conditions, how can she believe that I really want to make a deal with her." Yun Qingyan's eyes were sly, and a smile floated in his eyes.
"Princess, slave maid still can't understand, what do you want to do?" Qiu'er opened her mouth in confusion.
"Now those rumors in the court must have come out through the Liu family, but I asked the queen mother, and she didn't know how the queen mother came into contact with the Liu family. You must know that the Queen Mother is now in solitary confinement, and it is taboo to send messages to officials in the court in private. Yun Qingyan paused, "So the most important of the three conditions just now is only the first point." ”
As for the other two, they said it just to make Empress Dowager Liu believe in herself completely.
Qiu'er thought for a while, "Princess, do you want to find out who is secretly delivering the news for the Queen Mother through this time?" ”
"That's right." Yun Qingyan nodded, "Even if the Queen Mother wants to disobey her promise, at least the superficial kung fu still has to be done." I have already sent someone to keep an eye on everyone around the Queen Mother, as long as there is any action, this time I will definitely be able to find out the channel through which she transmits news outside the palace. ”
"I see!" Qiu'er suddenly realized, and said with a smile, "As long as it is found out, who is delivering the news, and then handing that person in front of the emperor, he will definitely be severely punished." ”
"If it's just handed over to my father, wouldn't it be a waste of so much of my thoughts." Yun Qingyan hooked the corners of his mouth with interest, "As long as you find that channel, you can naturally make good use of it." ”
As for Empress Dowager Liu, if you want to lift the confinement, it's not that simple!
……
Liu's house, in the lobby.
Liu Wushuang frowned tightly and looked at Liu Qiye.
"Father, is there really news from the Queen Mother?"
Liu Qiye's face was also a little ugly, and he nodded, "It was sent by the palace people around the Queen Mother, and it was said that the Liu family would do it as instructed." ”
"It's just a matter of spreading those gossips, but all of a sudden, it's really difficult for my father to get so many ministers in a short period of time." Liu Wushuang thought about opening his mouth.
"Before, the Queen Mother was afraid that Liu Jiashu would make a big move, so she always warned her father to be cautious in his words and deeds. Now all of a sudden, it's a bit of a hassle to woo the officials on this list. Liu Qiye sighed, "What my father is worried about now is that the Queen Mother is only afraid of what will happen next, so she is in such a hurry to let the Liu family win over the power." ”
Liu Wushuang thought for a moment and hooked the corners of his lips.
"Father, if that's really the case, it's not necessarily a good opportunity."
"What do you mean by that?" Liu Qiye looked at Liu Wushuang.
"Father, for so many years, although the Liu family has always relied on the court because of the Queen Mother, in the final analysis, the Liu family's own strength has not been greatly improved. If the Queen Mother has an accident, it is very likely that the Liu family will be implicated, if you can take this opportunity to completely develop and grow the Liu family, no matter what the situation of the Queen Mother in the harem is, our Liu family is naturally not something that the emperor can move casually. ”
Liu Wushuang's tone was faintly excited, because they had to cling to the Empress Dowager Liu, they had to be respectful to the Empress Dowager Liu, and even the Liu family had to be willing to become a chess piece in her hand, why!
"Having said that, how can it be so simple to win over courtiers?" Liu Qiye paused, "The safest way is to let the Queen Mother help you marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince smoothly and enter the Middle Palace, so as to ensure the prosperity of our Liu family." ”
"Father, I'm afraid this will not be as you wish." Liu Wushuang's face sank slightly, "Now that my daughter has been driven out of the palace by the emperor's order, if I want to contact His Royal Highness the Crown Prince again, or marry His Royal Highness the Prince, I'm afraid it's already a fantasy." ”
"This ......" Liu Qiye looked at Liu Wushuang's appearance, and his eyes showed a little disappointment, "Maybe the Queen Mother is ...... there."
"Father, are you really so willing to be a pawn in the hands of the Queen Mother? Now that the opportunity is finally in front of you, you don't want to try it? Liu Wushuang interrupted Liu Qiye's words, "Father, take 10,000 steps back and say, now it is the Queen Mother's side who took the initiative to ask for it, what are you still worried about and hesitating about?" ”
Father has always been too cowardly and restrained in doing things, if it weren't for this reason, maybe now the Liu family would no longer have to rely on the Empress Dowager Liu.
Liu Qiye clenched the list in his hand, and after a long while, he mustered up his courage and nodded generally.
"Okay, since this time it's the Queen Mother's intention, then follow the Queen Mother's instructions. Perhaps, this is really a good opportunity for the Liu family! ”
