Zhiqin looked at Lin Qingran with a puzzled look in his eyes, Lianxin and Lianyue also looked at Lin Qingran with the same puzzlement.
When did we reach the point of life and death?
Lin Qingran said calmly: "Whose concubine is Concubine Hua? No matter how favored she is, the emperor will give him a lot of face because the men of the Hua family have worked so hard for him. If Concubine Hua and Dugu Lin collude,
, when the emperor went to sit in Concubine Hua's room, he accidentally ate and drank something that he shouldn't have used. Who do you think the next emperor of Dongming will be?"
Zhiqin was startled: "What the lady means is that they want to..."
Why can't she say the word "regicide"?
Lin Qingran suddenly lay back in a good mood, blinked at Zhiqin, and said in a low voice: "I don't mean anything, I just thought of a saying I heard before, which is to tell a dog to jump over the wall if it is anxious.
If the affairs of Concubine Hua and Dugu Lin are known to others, do you think they will take action in advance..."
She yawned, closed her eyes lazily, her voice became softer and softer, and finally she seemed to be asleep.
Lian Xin and Lian Yue glanced at the girl's peaceful sleeping face, nodded to each other, and quietly stepped out together. One of them left with light steps, while the other pricked up his ears and paid full attention to the movement in all directions.
I'm afraid I've missed something.
Zhiqin laughed softly, tucked Lin Qingran's quilt, then quietly stepped aside and added some silver charcoal to the charcoal basin, fearing that the girl on the bed would catch the cold.
…
After Dugulin returned to the Second Prince's Mansion from the Lin Mansion, he immediately ordered his servants to prepare hot water for a bath. He soaked in the tub for an hour before climbing out.
And he ordered his servants to burn every piece of his gorgeous clothes, from inside to outside.
After taking a shower, he went to the study room, only to find that the desk was piled with pictures of various beauties. He couldn't help but frown, and asked the chief attendant beside him: "Did the mother concubine ask someone to send it here?"
Chang Sui replied respectfully: "It was sent by the empress. The empress said that Her Highness is about to marry the concubine, so it is better to decide on the candidate for the main concubine as soon as possible. The empress said that these ladies are all the daughters of the ministers' families, and everyone has their own status.
She is noble, has outstanding appearance, has a blue heart and intelligence, possesses both political integrity and talent, and is worthy of being a royal concubine. Please select one who pleases your Highness, and I will go to the Emperor to ask for an imperial edict granting marriage to Your Highness."
Dugu Lin was sitting on a chair, and the sunlight shone through the carved window lattice, making his deep side face flicker. His eyes fell on the various beauties on the paper. After scanning them, they finally
He closed his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking, but the dark aura coming out of his body made Chang Sui dare not say another word.
After a while, Dugulin opened his eyes, frowned, looked at the pictures of beauties on the table, and let out a long sigh. He knew that these women must have been carefully selected for him by his mother-in-law, and he could marry any of them.
Each of them is very useful to his great cause and can enhance his power.
If it were in the past, he might still be in the mood to carefully select, pick the most advantageous one, and marry him without hesitation. Even if the other person is a stone girl who can't get married or have children, he won't care.
. He only wanted the power behind her to help him ascend to the highest position, but that was not possible today. Today, Baba rushed to the Lin family. In fact, the person he wanted to see the most was not Concubine Hua, but Lin Qingran, but he had to rely on him for life and death.
For an hour, I never saw her as I wished.
He sneered and swept the pictures of beauties on the desk to the floor, but in his mind he thought of the smiling girl. Why was she not in these pictures of beauties?
