Chapter 435: Concubine Zhao and the Empress
The two of them followed the princess to change into the clothes of the locals here, so as not to attract too much attention.
"Your clothes here are very distinctive, I've never seen them before."
"What is this? It's just ordinary people's clothes, and when you go, where I used to live, I'll send you a few more gorgeous clothes. ”
The princess also replied a little proudly.
"Then I'll pick and choose for myself."
An Shuangchi listened to the two women talking about these things next to her, and she was not interested at all, and she just wanted to find out the news as soon as possible to solve these things.
"Princess, where is that place you spoke of now? Can you take us there? ”
The princess nodded, she had forgotten what she was doing.
said that the three of them entered a restaurant that looked luxurious.
"This is it, let's go and see first, don't say much, just see how the people here discuss, and we can get a lot of news."
The princess spoke, and the three of them sat down in a small corner.
"Does that really work? I think these people are just people on the rivers and lakes, what can they know? ”
Mo Qingrou was a little skeptical.
"You don't understand, these people often know more about such things than these ordinary people, and they care more about the country than ordinary people."
An Shuangchi spoke.
Here they also learned that the king of Huijiang wanted the second prince to inherit the throne.
It's just that in the past, there were their own people in the house, so they are now fighting against each other.
All hope to be able to inherit this throne.
It's just that in the imperial court, the king of Huijiang is no longer capable of publishing anything.
Now it is Zhao Guifei who is in power.
"I didn't expect that I just left for such a while, and my father has become like this, it seems that this Zhao Guifei has been really working hard recently!"
Xingchen also said fiercely.
"What do you mean by this, could it be that your father's illness still has something to do with that Zhao Guifei?"
"Yes, my father was not so sick in the first place, but he had some cold, and it was the woman who took care of him all these years, but I didn't expect his illness to get worse and worse, my mother, as the queen, naturally found out about it, but ......"
The princess stopped talking, as if she was a little unhappy at the thought of what had happened before.
"How did your father deal with this?"
An Shuangchi asked directly.
"At that time, my father didn't believe me and my mother's words, my mother left the palace in a rage, and my brother and I naturally left with my mother.
Mo Qingrou only understood at this time why these people wanted their daughters to enter the palace to be the emperor's woman.
After all, if you get the emperor's favor, maybe you will be able to affect the trend of this country.
In this way, this Zhao Guifei is not a figure to provoke.
Be careful this time.
"Now that we know the situation, let's go directly to my eldest brother, and when the time comes, if there is anything, it should be easier to solve it."
The princess suggested.
However, An Shuangchi really didn't like the frivolous galaxy.
"There is no need for this matter, we are here with the emperor's order, and now we already know the basic situation here, although we still have to go to the palace to meet us, otherwise it will be uncourteous."
An Shuangchi said this.
Xingchen knew that they would not leave with him, and he was a little helpless.
"Princess, if you want to leave, go to your brother, and don't go back to the palace, that won't be a good thing for you and me."
Xingchen nodded, and left with a few of his maids.
"General, what should we do now?"
Mo Qingrou was a little puzzled, she knew that they had a very important mission to come here this time, but now she was still a little confused in her heart.
"We can't listen to the Snow Princess's family, let's wait until tomorrow when we go to see the emperor."
Mo Qingrou had no choice but to nod.
The next day, they came to the palace with the holy decree of Emperor Lingwu.
The emperor's illness was indeed a bit serious, but he was lying lazily on the bed, and his eyes had no light.
He was accompanied by only a richly dressed woman.
This woman is very beautiful, this is considered to be middle-aged, and she can still see her alluring appearance. This woman should be Zhao Guifei.
"A few guests, I'm really embarrassed about things here, the two children are indeed a little ignorant, and this will alarm the Emperor of Lingwu."
Zhao Guifei looked at the two with a smile, and looked very affinity.
However, the first feeling that this woman gave Mo Qingrou was that she didn't like it very much.
Her charming eyes revealed a sense of frivolity, and Mo Qingrou didn't know how such a woman could become a concubine.
"Concubine, how long has this situation lasted for the King of Huijiang? I think this is also very serious, and the matter of establishing the crown prince may have to be put on the agenda soon. ”
An Shuangchi bluntly stated the purpose of her coming this time.
"I also know this matter, but according to the etiquette, it should indeed be the eldest prince, the son of the queen's sister, to inherit this position, but the emperor really favors my son Yan'er, so this kind of thing happened, I'm really embarrassed."
"So what did the emperor mean before? Which son did he really want to sit in this position? ”
"This ...... The emperor has become like this now, and I naturally don't know how to describe it. ”
An Shuangchi also nodded, and he had already understood the general situation here.
Now as long as there are two princes and decide who they should help to ascend to the throne, this matter can be solved.
"A few people who have come from afar are tired of traveling and traveling, so it is better to stay in the palace today."
Zhao Guifei also made suggestions.
The king of Huijiang just sat on the side, and he was indeed so weak that he could not even speak.
"No need, since we have come here today, we should go to see the queen mother and the two princes no matter what. You don't have to worry about accommodation. ”
"That's fine, then I'll send someone to take you to the queen's sister."
The concubine said a few words very indifferently, and she didn't seem to be very enthusiastic about the position of the queen mother.
However, Mo Qingrou could easily see the desire in her eyes.
Such a woman is the most terrifying.
"No need, we already know where the queen lives before."
An Shuangchi said and left with Mo gently.
The two of them left together, and Zhao Guifei's face became very ugly.
She called a few of her trusted men.
"Several of you are people I trust, I ask you to help me keep up with these Lingwu people these days, I want to know what they do here every day, who they meet, and it is best to pay attention to the young man next to the general, if something bad happens, arrest that young man for me."
At this time, the concubine did not have the gentle appearance just now, and the cruelty and viciousness on her face were all displayed.
It seems that it is indeed not an easy task for a woman to be able to achieve this position.
"Yes!"
The men received the order and left.
An Shuangchi's martial arts are very strong, and he can naturally detect that someone is following him now.
He almost didn't have to think about it to know that this must be someone arranged by the concubine.
It's just that I didn't expect this woman to be so unbreathable, and now she wants to attack herself.
"Rou'er, we all need to be careful later, I didn't expect that woman to arrange for someone to follow us."
After Mo Qingrou heard this, he habitually wanted to look back, but was stopped by An Shuangchi.
"Are you a fool? Now we can't let them find out. ”
"But ......"
Mo Qingrou always felt that she had an uncomfortable feeling of being followed by several people like this.
"No, but try to take it easy, and we'll go see the queen first and see what kind of characters they are."
Mo nodded gently, indicating that he would do his best.
Finally, I came to the place where the queen lived.
Although it is also a relatively magnificent courtyard, it is still a little shabby compared to the palace.
"Is this really where the queen lives? Why do I feel as if it's not as good as the General's Mansion where we live? ”
Mo Qingrou also let out a sigh.
An Shuang didn't say anything and walked in directly with someone.
After the palace people announced, the queen arranged for someone to bring them into her room.
At this time, the galaxy is not here.
The queen was just wearing very simple clothes, and the whole person looked extraordinarily gentle.
This kind of gentleness is not hypocritical like Zhao Guifei, but a natural temperament, which makes people like it very much.
"See the Queen."
Mo Qingrou has told her from her intuition since the first time she saw this queen that the queen is also a rare gentle woman.
"Please sit down, I believe you have gone to see the king, I wonder if there is something going on here?"
An Shuangchi also said calmly:
"The battle for the throne between the two princes has seriously affected the safety of the people on the border between the two countries, and the emperor is also celebrating the New Year, so let's bring someone over to see if we can solve it."
When the queen heard this, she also sighed helplessly.
"Two adults, if it weren't for helplessness, who would have the heart to watch such a life ruin?"
