"I hope so." Wu Xiyu felt sad as she thought of Xiao Ce's cold face.
In the past, Xiao Ce was willing to dote on her and let her shine in public, but now he doesn't even want to act, and he doesn't even want to look at her. Plus, what hope does she have if she stays in Wangqiu Pavilion?
Shouldn't she be too hasty?
If he could gain Xiao Ce's trust first, figure it out slowly, and then find a way to get rid of Qin Zhao in the future, would he not be so passive?
"Mommy, I shouldn't be too impatient. Now His Highness is heartbroken and won't let me get close to him easily anymore." Wu Xiyu finally discovered the source of the problem.
In the past, even if it was a false love, she could get close to Xiao Ce, and she would have the opportunity to fall in love with Xiao Ce for a long time, so that one day she could sleep with him.
Now that Xiao Ce believes that she has joined forces with the imperial concubine's aunt, and his dislike of her is so obvious, what will she do in the future?
"Now that something has happened, there is no point in regretting it. Let's wait until the Queen Mother returns to the palace. Lao Nu firmly believes that Liangyuan will turn around one day." Aunt Zhong said firmly.
Wu Xiyu nodded slightly, feeling that what Aunt Zhong said made sense.
Although she is in decline, she has a lot of help. The imperial concubine and aunt have entered the cold palace, but the queen mother will return to the palace.
The Empress Dowager recognized her as the Crown Princess from the beginning, and if she found out that she was just Liang Yuan after returning to the palace, she might even help her take the position of Crown Princess.
Thinking of this possibility, Wu Xiyu felt very good.
She needs to think carefully about how she will go after the Queen Mother returns to the palace. One thing is certain, she must not be as eager for success as before. She must take her time and gain Xiao Ce's trust first.
It's the top priority.
The fact that Concubine Wu was sent to the cold palace once made the entire harem excited. Even Concubine Shu had to admit that Qin Zhao was somewhat capable and could actually allow a beloved concubine like Concubine Wu to live in the cold palace.
But she also understood that since Concubine Wu escaped death and only lived in the cold palace, she would probably have a chance to turn around, unless she died suddenly in the cold palace.
"If you want to take action, you must do it as soon as possible. Otherwise, when the Empress Dowager returns to the palace, the cold palace may not be able to trap Concubine Wu." Nianyun dismissed everyone and discussed this important matter with Concubine Shu.
She knew that Concubine Shu's lifelong worry was Concubine Wu. Even though she was the concubine of His Highness the Crown Prince, she had been bullied by Concubine Wu for half her life.
Concubine Wu has entered the cold palace, which is the best opportunity to eradicate Concubine Wu. If she misses it, she may not happen again.
Concubine Shu remained silent. She looked ahead blankly, thinking of many past events. All the profound past events she experienced were inseparable from Concubine Wu.
Nianyun knew what was on her mind, and Nianyun's words moved her heart.
"The empress must make a decision as soon as possible, otherwise it will be too late. The slaves heard that Concubine Wu was still well-dressed and well-fed after entering the cold palace, and no slave dared to treat Concubine Wu harshly. Although Concubine Wu entered the cold palace, she did not lose her title. As long as she
As soon as she came out, she was still the arrogant concubine. Yesterday, His Highness the Crown Prince asked the Emperor to execute the concubine. Concubine Wu is a person who must avenge her grievances. She will not let the Crown Prince go after she comes out..."
"But have you ever thought that if this matter fails, it will implicate Ce?" Concubine Shu expressed her worries.
She may also bring trouble to her parents' family.
How can Concubine Wu be easily plotted? She has many servants, and entering the Cold Palace is just like living in Jinyang Palace. There is no difference. Concubine Wu's confidence comes from the emperor's favor.
All she has is A Ce, the crown prince. If she can’t be crown prince because of harming A Ce, how should she, the mother-in-law, deal with herself?
She can't take this risk for her own selfishness, she can't afford to lose.
Nianyun wanted to say something else, but when he saw Concubine Shu's face filled with worry, she finally chose to agree: "My concubine's concerns are reasonable. I am short-sighted."
"I know you are doing this for my own good. Don't worry, I have endured these years and will definitely win in the future. Don't forget that I have a good son like A Ce, but Concubine Wu only has Wu Liangyuan. I
Hearing that Wu Liangyuan was banned again, this means that A Ce's love for Wu Liangyuan has been severed. A Ce is not the emperor, he can tell what is right and what is wrong." Speaking of this, Concubine Shu suddenly became enlightened.
Yes, why should she dirty her hands? Isn't Ace here?
A Ce is the prince and behaves steadily. The emperor has handed over most of the political affairs to A Ce. As long as A Ce ascends the throne, Concubine Wu will not be able to cause trouble in the harem.
At this time, Nianyun also felt that Concubine Shu's words made sense.
All they have to do is wait. When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ascends the throne, Concubine Wu will no longer dominate the harem alone.
Not only was Jinyang Palace thinking about the possibility of getting rid of Concubine Wu completely, Wang Yueju and Baozhu were also discussing the matter with Qin Zhao.
After hearing this, Qin Zhao rejected the proposal without thinking: "Such a stupid thing must never be done. Otherwise, I will harm not only myself, but also His Royal Highness. Concubine Wu has been immersed in the harem for many years and has a deep foundation. She acted rashly
If you take action, you will only get someone killed."
"But it would be a pity not to take advantage of such a good opportunity." Baozhu sighed softly.
The emperor was too lenient towards Concubine Wu. Concubine Wu had obviously done heinous things, but she was not even given the title. It was so unfair.
"You think it's an opportunity to take action, but I feel that once I take action, it becomes my own crisis. Maybe Wu Guifei has already set a trap and is just waiting for me to jump." Qin Zhao disagreed.
If Concubine Wu was so easy to get rid of, she and Xiao Ce had succeeded yesterday.
However, despite the solid evidence, the emperor still protected Concubine Wu without thinking. Such behavior was no different from that of a foolish emperor.
On the one hand, the emperor was dissatisfied with Xiao Ce's doting on any woman in the East Palace, but on the other hand, the emperor only doted on Concubine Wu. It was a double standard.
Baozhu doesn't know Qin Zhao's true inner thoughts. If he knew, he would be scared to death.
Let’s talk about the cold palace.
When Concubine Wu entered the Cold Palace, her food and clothing expenses were still the best in the entire harem, and no one dared to look down upon her. Although she lived in the Cold Palace, it was no different from Jinyang Palace.
She had not been idle these past two days, thinking of every possibility.
For example, if Concubine Shu had been stepped on by her for many years, might Concubine Shu want to take the opportunity to kill her? For example, might that bitch Qin Zhao also want to take this opportunity to get rid of her.
If this is the case, she will let them have no return, and even take this opportunity to return to the harem.
However, after waiting for three days, the cold palace was calm and nothing was strange. Concubine Shu did not move, and Qin Zhao did not feel anything strange.
She learned from Qiu Shui that Sister Xi was thrown into the cold palace because she went to question the prince as to why she was thrown into the cold palace. The prince became angry and grounded Sister Xi again.
This is enough to prove that the women of the Wu family have a prosperous relationship. She must not fall down like this, otherwise, in the future, Sister Xi will be alone and helpless. How easy will it be to realize her dream of becoming a queen?
