395. Chapter 395 Two women vying for the second place
He saw her tilting her head, thinking for a long time, and then shook her head, "I don't know this slave. I just heard from our nanny that the emperor loves Concubine Wang Gui and Concubine Xia Shu very much. It is possible for both of them."
"oh......"
Shangguan Yu responded in a low voice, and became a little concerned about the sentence "love you very much".
"Mother, I have to go back and do some work. I'll come see you another day, otherwise grandma will find me running out again and she will scold me again later."
After Yu'er left, the entire cold palace became extremely depressed again. Only the falling yellow leaves danced in the autumn wind, adding some autumn vitality to the cold palace.
In the imperial garden, Xia Shuting was wandering around proudly, with a look of arrogance stronger than before in her eyes.
The talented Xu Min was also with her. Besides her, there was also Qiao Qian, who could be said to not have a very good relationship with Xia Shuting.
And the reason why she followed him was because Xia Shuting deliberately asked her to come here.
He obviously said that he didn't care about Qiao Qian's superiority or inferiority, but actually he wanted to show off to her the emperor's love for her, and wanted to tell her that when she became the queen, there would be many things that would make Qiao Qian look good in the future.
But Qiao Qian didn't have much interest in understanding Xia Shuting's thoughts.
Originally, she did not marry into the palace to gain any status, but simply listened to her father's words.
Therefore, she is not very interested in participating in the fights between these harem women.
"Recently, there are rumors in the palace about the emperor's candidate for establishing another queen. Who do you think has a better chance among us?"
Xia Shuting spoke slowly. Although Xu Min and Qiao Qian were included in her words, anyone with a discerning eye knew that the only one who could compete with Xia Shuting was Wang Lin.
Xu Min is a very sensible person. When he heard what Xia Shuting said, he immediately said humbly: "Sister, I feel that this time the position of queen belongs to you. Sisters like us, how can we compete with my sister?"
Qualifications.”
After Xia Shuting heard Xu Min's words, she was naturally happy, but she still said in a hypocritical and humble manner: "I can't say these words so fully. The imperial concubine entered the palace earlier than me, and there is also the princess to help support me.
I'm not sure I can argue with her."
"As my sister said, there is a princess behind the imperial concubine. Don't you also have your father behind you? Besides, it is not our emperor who has the final say as to who will be the queen? As long as the emperor loves my sister, even if the princess wants to stand in the way, I'm afraid
It’s not that easy, right?”
Xu Min's words really spoke to Xia Shuting's heart.
Since the queen was thrown into the cold palace, she obviously noticed that the emperor's attitude towards her was not as cold as before.
It seemed that she had guessed correctly. The emperor had deliberately pretended to be indifferent to her because of the queen's presence.
With Xia Shuting's charm, even if the royal concubine entered the palace before her, the position of queen might not be hers.
As she thought about it, the pride and arrogance on her face became more intense.
At this time, her eyes inadvertently glanced at Qiao Qian, who had been silent next to Xu Min. Seeing the unconcerned look on her face, Xia Shuting's eyes immediately became unhappy.
"Qiao Qian, what's your expression? Do you think I'm not qualified for the position of queen?"
