Chapter 186: Going the Other Way
"Brother Imperial?" Muxue looked at him in surprise, with obvious shock on his face, "What are you talking about?"
"Xue'er, what I said is true. I just suddenly realized it last night." Mu Xiuhan's tone was serious, and his expression didn't look like he was joking at all. "Since I broke off my engagement with Yan Li, my luck has become better and better. The worse it gets, the worse the situation becomes day by day——"
"It's not all the fault of that bitch Yan Li!" Mu Xue stood up angrily, "She could rebel against the queen mother, slap Mu Ya in public, kick Mu Yun into the lake, even Mu Yunzhu was scolded by Concubine Gu It’s also because of Yan Li! Could it be that the emperor’s brain was also stimulated because he was dethroned as the prince?”
"Why are you so loud?" Mu Xiuhan frowned and said unhappily, "Don't you realize that all the people who have a bad relationship with Yan Li have bad luck?"
Mu Xue looked at him coldly with a sullen face.
"Who was the legitimate daughter of the Gu family before? Everyone in the capital admires and respects a woman, and her status is much inferior to that of a princess? But since she broke up with Yan Li, she married that dandy Mu Wenxuan for the first time."
"Prince Yu's palace was demoted because he offended Yan Li."
"Just now you said that Mu Yunzhu was beaten by Concubine Gu because she offended Yan Li. Isn't this what we want? It proves that Yan Li has not been won over by Gu Xiang, and we still have a chance."
"Xue'er, no one who offends Yan Li will end well. If we do the opposite, will bad luck be far away from us?"
Mu Xue's face was cold: "After all, you are still afraid of her!"
Mu Xiuhan had no choice but to say: "Xue'er, I am doing this not only for myself, but also for you and the queen mother. Do you want to watch other princes ascend to the supreme position, kill me, and then abuse you and the queen mother?" "
The last sentence pierced Muxue's heart hard, and her anger was instantly doused by a basin of ice water.
Muxue's expression changed, but she still said harshly: "The queen is the queen of the middle palace. No matter which prince ascends the throne, he will not dare to abuse the queen."
Mu Xiuhan sneered: "Do you believe this?"
Mu Xue looked at him coldly, but in her heart she didn't understand that the palace was sinister, the concubines in the harem were fighting each other, and the princes were fighting to the death.
The ultimate winner will be kind to those he wants to be kind to.
What about the Queen?
Without the support of a son, even if the new emperor can enjoy two years of glory and wealth when he first ascends the throne, he will eventually be slowly emptied of power until no one cares about him and he dies of old age in the palace.
As a legitimate princess, she sounds noble, but once she loses the protection of her mother and brother, her fate will not be much better.
Mu Xue was silent for a while, and finally sat down slowly and began to think about Mu Xiuhan's words.
I have to admit, what he said does make some sense.
Gu Anxian, Mu Yunzhu, and Mu Ya all became worse day by day after offending Yan Li.
On the other hand, Princess Mu Yun of Prince Xian's Mansion, although she had a conflict with Yan Li before and was kicked into a lake by her, she did not suffer any serious damage after she stopped interacting with Yan Li.
The Gu family has already developed a grudge against her. If they can bring her back...
Thinking like this, Muxue couldn't help but think of the huge battle on the day Jiuhuangshu was hired, and she felt jealous and resentful in her heart.
Where did that little bitch Yan Li get her incredible luck?
Shaking his head to get rid of the messy thoughts, Muxue finally asked: "What does the emperor want me to do?"
Seeing that her attitude softened, Mu Xiuhan breathed a sigh of relief: "Tell Yan Li that I regret it. As long as she is willing, I will grant her the position of princess and promise to ascend the throne in the future. She must be the queen." ”
Muxue's expression was subtle, and she couldn't help but remind him of the fact: "Brother, you are no longer the prince."
"Even if I am not the crown prince, I am still the queen's legitimate son." Mu Xiuhan was dissatisfied. "No one can change this fact! My father only deposed me temporarily, and the throne will still be mine sooner or later."
In his excessive excitement, he accidentally pulled an injury on his body. The pain made his face turn pale and his body stiffened. It took him a while to recover.
Muxue looked at him without saying a word.
"As long as Yan Li changes his mind, my father will see my kindness sooner or later." Mu Xiuhan took a breath and carefully lay back on the bed, "Xue'er, we have all seen my father's preference for Yan Li. As long as she If you are willing to help me, the reserve will be mine sooner or later.”
Muxue seemed to be moved by his words and hesitated for a moment: "Will the Queen agree?"
She knew that the queen mother hated Yan Li not entirely because of her origin, but also because Yan Li's mother was Jiang Yi.
Not to mention Jiang Yi's reputation, she was the woman he loved most in his father's heart. The last time his mother mentioned Jiang Yi, she was slapped by his father.
Jiang Yi is a thorn in the mother's heart, and she probably won't agree to this.
Mu Xiuhan frowned: "Don't let the Queen know for the time being."
Muxue looked at him silently, weighing the left and right in her heart. In the end, interests trumped face.
"Okay." She nodded, "I will leave the palace now to ask Yan Li."
