So the eldest princess naturally hopes that Princess Xiao will become the emperor.
Although Princess Xiao does not seem to be as capable as Princess Qin, and does not have as much scheming and strategy, Princess Xiao is sincere and straightforward, and is aboveboard with others, so she does not mislead the ministers.
The most important thing is that the eldest princess feels that Princess Xiao will definitely take more care of herself and Princess Lian in the future.
I won't be like Princess Qin, I'm just afraid of retaliation.
But she understood the emperor's personality. If she said Princess Xiao was good, the emperor would definitely have an idea. Even if the feelings were in place and she didn't think about it now, he would have an idea after a while. Whoever she said was good would be the emperor's idea.
She may think that someone bribed her, so she will never say that Princess Xiao is suitable, but she will never say that Princess Xiao is not good.
In this way, the emperor will not have any bad influence on Princess Xiao.
The empress held the eldest princess's hand, with tears in her eyes, "Sister, you look good. Have I aged in the past few years, and am I aging very quickly?"
The eldest princess looked down and saw that the empress had a bright and radiant appearance. Even after she reached a certain age, her radiance remained the same, and because she was in a high position, she naturally had a certain dignity, which made her look even more dazzling.
Of course, someone who is busy with everything will not be as young and supple as when she was a little girl.
There are definitely wrinkles.
The eldest princess looked at it carefully and said with a smile: "Even if you have a few wrinkles, you are still so beautiful. You don't need to rely on your beauty to find a better husband. Isn't it too childish to care about this?"
Only the eldest princess can call the emperor naive.
The empress smiled bitterly, "No, eldest sister, that's not what I meant. You know, I handed over the Phantom to Qin'er a few years ago."
The eldest princess made a surprised expression, "That's the emperor's secret guard."
The empress nodded, "Yes, but I also feel that Qin'er is capable and can manage Phantom better, and she promised that Phantom can play its greatest role and make greater contributions to our country, so I agreed.
She has done really well in the past few years. If it weren't for Xiao Xian and Shen Mingzhu, I'm afraid we would have been able to join forces with the Kingdom of Jin to attack Da Qin."
The eldest princess doesn't really understand or care about the matters of war, expansion, and being an emperor. For her, it would be nice to be her eldest princess all the time.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, now Xiao Xian has become Qin'er's guest, and Shen Mingzhu can no longer go against us. Unification of the world is just around the corner."
The eldest princess comforted the emperor.
The empress shook her head, "I'm afraid some people won't tolerate me doing this great undertaking."
The eldest princess looked at her doubtfully, "Why did your Majesty say this?"
The empress pointed at herself, "Eldest sister, why am I so ill?" After saying that, she had a sarcastic expression and her eyes became cold.
The eldest princess looked at the empress as if she was begging for an explanation.
The empress snorted and said: "Some people think that I have lived too long, and they want to test me."
The eldest princess' eyelids twitched and she said in surprise: "Could it be that you are talking about..."
"Shh." The empress stopped her from saying her name and whispered: "Eldest sister must be wondering how she can cure me if she makes me sick."
