Chapter 415 Snake hits 7 inches
Lin Junxue curled her lips
"This move may not be what Concubine Mi really wants to do. She is not eager for quick success and instant benefits. I am afraid that the person who is really anxious is not Concubine Mi, but Duke Chen behind her. The Chen family is very calculating. They saw Wuji's potential, so they are anxious and have made up their minds. Duke Chen seems to be indifferent to fame and fortune, but in fact, he knows the interests involved best and judges the situation. Who can be more cunning than Duke Chen?"
Some people seem to have nothing and are disadvantaged in every way, but they get all the benefits.
Just like the Duke of Chen, after supporting Xie Yu to ascend the throne, he immediately retired and became an idle duke.
But over the years, Duke Chen has acted more and more like he wants nothing, and the emperor has given him nothing good.
Duke Chen has retired, but Concubine Mi has been in the palace for many years and is still favored.
The Chen family got a lot of lucrative jobs and won the trust of Xie Yu.
This is a truly smart person, who uses his own retreat to ensure the prosperity of the entire family.
Chen Mi was able to develop such a character thanks to the training of Duke Chen.
Back then, Duke Chen spent a lot of effort in cultivating his granddaughter Chen Mi and had made preparations long ago.
Qiao Xin nodded
"Your Majesty, although the Emperor has not issued a direct decree in the past few days, I am afraid that if it continues like this, it will not be delayed for a few days. I wonder if Danzhen can bring back good news when she leaves the palace today?"
Lin Junxue's eyes were full of indifference and her expression was indifferent.
Counting the days, there should be news from Danzhen today.
Talking
Danzhen walked in hurriedly, barely catching her breath, her face full of joy.
"My Lady, it's done"
Qiao Xin was delighted and immediately looked at Lin Junxue
Lin Junxue slowly raised one corner of her lips, her eyes slightly deep. These few days, there was finally a result.
"Come on, follow me to Shenguang Palace. It's time to meet Concubine Mi."
Second day
As soon as Xie Yu finished the morning court, Chen Mi went to Taiwu Hall to ask for an audience.
After meeting Xie Yu, Chen Mi knelt on the ground without saying a word.
Xie Yu looked at Chen Mi who was apologizing first and frowned, wondering why she was like that.
"Mi'er, what are you doing? You are fine, why are you asking for trouble? Stand up and talk."
Chen Mi had no intention of getting up and remained kneeling.
"Your Majesty, I came here today to ask Your Majesty not to adopt the eldest prince under my name. Please give up this idea."
Xie Yu's face turned a little ugly. He never expected that Concubine Mi came today for this matter. No wonder she wanted to apologize.
Seeing Xie Yu's suddenly gloomy face, I knew he was really angry.
Chen Mi felt bitter, but she had no other choice.
"Mi'er, you should know that I am willing to raise the eldest prince under your name because I value you. It is because of our long-standing friendship, and I value you even more. Before, I asked you, and you were clearly willing. Why did you suddenly regret it after a few days? What is the reason?"
Chen Mi bowed his head
"Your Majesty, before, I didn't understand that mother and child are a matter of fate. But now, the eldest prince is unwilling, and I don't want to force it. My body is not strong enough. For so many years, I have not been able to give birth to a prince and princess for Your Majesty. It is my bad luck."
Chen Mi has been with Xie Yu for many years, and as they have been childhood sweethearts, she naturally knows how to make Xie Yu calm down.
Over the years, she rarely showed such vulnerability.
Seeing this, Xie Yu's anger did subside a little.
the other side
Zhonghe Palace
Tea for Guyu
"My queen, do you think that Concubine Mi can really make the emperor give up the idea of adopting the eldest prince to the Shenguang Palace?"
Lin Junxue lowered her eyes, took a sip of tea, curled her lips, and spoke softly.
"The Concubine Mi has her own methods. If she fails in this matter, no one else can. Only she can make the Emperor take back his order and avoid suspicion. Just wait and see. The Concubine Mi has always been a rare sober and smart person in this palace."
Taiwu Hall
Xie Yu asked Chen Mi to stand up, and Chen Mi stood up.
for a while
Xie Yu said with a disappointed look on his face, "Mi'er, since you don't want to accept my painstaking arrangements, let's forget about it. From now on, the eldest prince and you will no longer have any chance to meet."
Chen Mi nodded. This time, she personally pushed away the emperor's intentions.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."
Xie Yu waved his hand, his voice was extremely cold.
"Go back"
Chen Mi looked at Xie Yu's impatient expression, swallowed his bitterness, respectfully took his leave, and left Taiwu Hall.
After Chen Mi returned to Shenguang Palace, Qiao Xin arrived within half an hour.
"This servant pays respects to the Empress Mi."
After saying that, Qiao Xin took out a thick letter from her arms and placed it on the table.
Chen Mi immediately asked Hua Ling to put it away.
Qiao Xin said, "My Lady Concubine Mi, the Queen wants you to rest assured. The things in this envelope are unique and are all given to you. These things will not be passed on to others. Please rest assured, My Lady Concubine Mi. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."
Chen Mi looked at Qiao Xin expressionlessly.
"Qiao Xin, please tell the Queen that I should thank her for letting me off the hook today. I will remember this favor."
It is said to be a favor, but everyone knows in their hearts whether it is a favor or just a grudge?
Qiao Xin nodded respectfully without changing her expression.
"I will convey the truth, I will take my leave."
After Qiao Xin left
Hua Ling looked angry
"Your Highness, the Queen is so calculating. She actually used the Duke's evidence to force you to come forward and personally reject the Emperor. This is simply killing people and destroying their hearts. It's too much. It was so close that the eldest prince could be raised in the name of our Shenguang Palace. It's really hateful."
Chen Mi looked at the indignant Hua Ling and suddenly felt tired.
Grandfather tried every means to raise the eldest prince under her name. After much planning, the emperor finally made up his mind.
Unexpectedly, the eldest prince would rather be punished than go against the emperor's wishes, which caused a twist.
And today, the queen brought witnesses and evidence of her father forcing his concubine to death, losing two lives, occupying land, and causing harm, and asked her to make her own choice.
What choice can she make?
If the emperor knew about this, the Duke's Mansion's century-long reputation would be completely ruined.
The queen produced this evidence, she had no choice
She could only give up the eldest prince and save her father and the Duke's Mansion.
Once the queen made her move, she didn't give her any chance to resist.
No wonder the Queen has not taken any action in the past few days. It turns out that she was just stalling for time, collecting evidence and evidence of her father's crimes, waiting to catch her off guard today.
In the end, she underestimated the queen. Although she was prepared, she did not expect the queen to take action outside the palace.
Unpredictable
This game not only failed to allow the eldest prince to be raised under her name, but also angered the emperor and lost his heart. She lost everything.
Chen Mi burned the letter sent by Qiao Xin with her own hands. Looking at the burning letter, her heart turned cold.
From now on, she and the queen will fight to the death.
Zhonghe Palace
Qiao Xin came back to report and conveyed what Concubine Mi had just said.
Lin Junxue just smiled slightly
Concubine Mi is declaring war on her
From this time on, she and Concubine Mi finally stood on opposite sides.
It was only a matter of time. She had a premonition about it, but it happened earlier because of Wuji's incident.
