A palace full of cannon fodder reads my heart, and ladies are killing each other indiscriminately

"The Wen family has such huge ambitions. Why does she want our General's Office to help her?"

Mrs. Zhang was shocked, she did not expect the queen to act like this.

I'm afraid the Wen family already knows about this.

If the emperor cannot give birth and the other princes in the palace die one after another, then the successor to the throne will indeed have to be selected from the grandchildren.

[Ambition? Well, Wo actually thinks that the queen is a good helper in her career. 】

[Since Zha Zhalong won’t make her happy, then she will find happiness on her own and let Zha Zhalong’s hopes fail. It is said that women’s hearts are the most poisonous. Who makes Zha Zhalong not treat others as human beings? 】

[Hmph, throw it away after use. How is this different from a rag? 】

Yes, what is the difference between this and a rag?

Mrs. Zhang sighed.

She has lived for most of her life, and she has never thought clearly like a newly weaned baby.

"Is this why you proposed to the emperor to raise Li Cairen's child?" Mrs. Zhang asked.

Concubine Zhao nodded and said with a faint smile: "Although I say so, it still depends on whether Li Cairen cooperates. If she has second thoughts, even if I protect her, the child in her belly may not be able to survive." Give birth safely."

Now that the queen has given birth and the harem has nothing to do, they will attack her and the concubines.

As for the emperor, he probably didn't want Li Caishen to give birth to a prince.

Concubine Zhao couldn't help but laugh mockingly in her heart: "As expected of a husband and wife, they both thought of the same place."

"From your analysis, instead of placing your hopes on the Queen, it would be better to shift the target to Li Cairen."

Madam Zhang sighed, and her eyes changed a little when she looked at Gu Ruoruan.

It's a pity, Ruanruan is a princess.

When I think of the little prince who had a miscarriage before Concubine Zhao, I feel sad. It is precisely because Ruanruan is a little princess that the emperor did not kill him in pain, which is also a blessing in misfortune.

However, the Queen and the Emperor have to guard against it.

"You already have an idea in your mind, and I feel at ease. But...you have to be extremely careful."

Not to mention, I don't know if Li Cairen is carrying a prince in his belly, so he has to be careful in this ten-month pregnancy.

At the same time, it is difficult to guarantee whether Li Cairen has other thoughts.

Just be afraid of raising another white-eyed wolf.

"Master, the time has come."

Jinlan knocked on the door and reminded Concubine Zhao inside that the banquet was about to begin.

Several people tidied up their manners before getting up and going to the banquet.

……

"Zhao Zhao, please sit next to me."

Concubine Zhao and Gu Ruoruan pinched and pointed it out.

At this time, all the concubines from the harem had arrived, as well as some important officials and family members.

On the other side of the important ministers of the court, there was Old General Zhang, who was wearing the imperial uniform of a first-class general, with white hair on his temples, a pair of piercing tiger eyes, and a murderous aura all over his body.

On the other side, General Zhang looked similar to him and looked towards Concubine Zhao and her daughter.

Concubine Zhao naturally felt the gaze of her father and brother, and couldn't help but look at the two of them, her eyes instantly turned red.

But considering the current situation, in full view of everyone, the hands hidden in the wide sleeves were clenched a little tighter.

Gu Ruoruan looked up at Concubine Zhao, then at Old General Zhang who was looking at them from the other side, showing her white teeth and smiling sweetly.

He shouted crisply: "Grandpa, uncle."

"Eh~"

General Zhang's eyes were red and he choked in response.

When he went on the expedition, Gu Ruanruan was only a month old. Unexpectedly... the princess recognized him at the first sight of two grandsons and grandsons who had never met before.

This grandpa shouting made him feel warm all over.

The chilling aura on his body was instantly weakened.

General Zhang unconsciously put on a smile on his cold face, and soon thought of the ferocious scar on his face, and kept the corners of his mouth flat, fearing to frighten her.

Gu Ruoruan's smile became even brighter.

[Grandpa and uncle are really cute. They are indeed the cutest people in the world. 】

General Zhang's old face froze and he stared at Gu Ruoruan, who had been pulled down by Concubine Zhao. Just now... was his granddaughter talking to her?

Gu Ruoruan, who was sitting next to Concubine Zhao, looked at everyone present with her big, smart eyes.

"The old general has been guarding the border for me these days. This time he won a great victory. The people in the Western Regions were frightened and surrendered to our country. We will send envoys here soon to negotiate peace."

The emperor raised his glass to General Zhang, as if he were a monarch and his ministers were respectful.

General Zhang didn't dare to express his displeasure, so he stood up immediately, raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.

"I don't dare to rely on you to believe that I can win this battle. If the emperor doesn't sit in the rear and let Wei Chen have no worries, there will be no victory in this battle."

[Unexpectedly, my grandpa is still a cunning old man. He knows that Zha Zhalong likes others to flatter him. This flattery is really profound. 】

General Zhang, who had just sat down, twitched his lips and looked up at Gu Ruoruan.

Then Gu Ruoruan's voice of complaining sounded in his mind again.

[Poor grandpa, who has been loyal and patriotic all his life, you still don’t know how miserable your precious daughter and precious granddaughter will end up after your death. 】

General Zhang: "???"

He clearly didn't see the little princess speak, but her voice was all in his mind.

This voice was unmistakable, it was clearly the little princess who sweetly called him grandpa just now.

General Zhang, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, couldn't help but be shocked.

Uncle Zhang Shaoqing's heart exploded with thunder, and he looked up at Gu Ruoruan in shock.

The hand holding the wine glass almost crushed it.

If what this voice said was true, then what was the point of him and his father surviving a narrow escape to save the country for Daliang?

[The general is a good general, but it is a pity that the emperor is not a good emperor. 】

[The Zhang family is really miserable. Grandpa and uncle died in the battle. It’s okay. My mother was forced to drink poisoned wine. My cousins ​​were all more miserable. The most pitiful thing is that grandma’s white-haired person gave away the black-haired person. Wait until After Brother Sixth Emperor, a man who was more than a hundred times more cruel and stupid than Zha Zhalong, took the throne. 】

[He even brutally murdered more than a hundred members of the Zhang family. The country that my grandfather and uncle had defended with their lives was, in the end, destroyed by the Six Emperors. In just three years, the people were in dire straits, war broke out, and the country was in ruins. 】

[Tsk tsk, I have to say that the person born with a love-brain and a brain-dead gene is a complete bad guy. 】

"Bang~"

The wine glass in Zhang Shaoqing's hand was crushed.

"What? The drinks tonight are not good?"

The smile on the emperor's face gradually solidified as he sat on the dragon throne.

He had just listened to General Zhang's flattery and was in a happy mood. He had not yet had time to show his kindness and generosity as an emperor in front of the officials.

He was interrupted by Zhang Shaoqing suddenly crushing the wine glass.

Many of them cast malicious glances on the Zhang family and his son.

Gu Ruoruan was also confused, looking at the broken wine glass in Zhang Shaoqing's hand.

[Uncle is so disgusted that he crushed the wine glass with his bare hands. I really want to imitate him. Ruan Ruan must be so good. 】

Zhang Shaoqing's frosty face improved slightly, and he looked up at the emperor who was staring at him with a calm expression.

He opened his mouth and was about to find an excuse to excuse himself.

Prime Minister Wen, who was sitting not far away, sneered: "If Major General Zhang is dissatisfied with the emperor's banquet today, he can just say it. Why should he crush the wine glass? Is this... thinking that he has great achievements and can shock the emperor?"

【Huh? Who is this old man? You're so pinched, you actually dare to put on your uncle's little shoes in front of so many people, huh ~ bad guy ~]

Emperor Gu Jin's face became gloomy to the naked eye, and he held back his words.

The Zhang family has just made meritorious deeds. If he launches an attack at this time, it will inevitably hurt the hearts of the meritorious officials.

But Zhang Shaoqing was in front of him again, making it difficult for him to get off the stage, and his hatred for the Zhang family was further recorded in his heart.

The queen couldn't help but curl her lips, looked at Concubine Zhao from the corner of her eye, and smiled apologetically.

Concubine Zhao glared at her, wasn't it because she made the emperor agree to adopt the fetus in Li Cairen's belly, which offended her?

Gu Huaiyu, who was sitting on the other side, frowned slightly.

He probably knew the plans of his mother and his grandfather's family.

Therefore, he did not object to his grandfather giving eye drops to the Zhang family today.

"Prime Minister Wen, I haven't seen you for a few years. I have learned a lot about my ability to confuse right and wrong and slander people casually with just one mouth."

Zhang Shaoqing laughed out loud.

"Your Majesty, I just thought about this battle and failed to cut off the head of the leader of the Western Region. I was angry with myself, so I couldn't control my strength for a moment. I didn't mean to embarrass the Emperor."

"Yes, Your Majesty...my brother has always been stubborn and unyielding. Unlike some people, who can only flatter and fail to accomplish anything."

Concubine Zhao raised her lips and glanced at the emperor with a coquettish look.

Then he looked at the Queen and Prime Minister Wen mockingly: "Take the issue of floods in the south of the Yangtze River. Some people know that it is better to ask the emperor to compromise and let the regent handle it."

The regent Gu Ji, who was suddenly mentioned, raised his eyes to look at the charming Concubine Zhao.

A dark glint flashed in his eyes, but he quickly covered it up.

He raised his thin lips and glanced at Prime Minister Wen from the corner of his eye: "Prime Minister Wen has many students under his command. Almost half of the officials are his students. How can he be helpless about the floods in the south of the Yangtze River?"

Killing hearts.

Gu Ruoruan rubbed her eyes and looked at the regent in the distance, unable to help but twinkling with stars.

Looking at Emperor Gu Jin again, he couldn't help but wrinkle his nose and turned away his eyes in disgust.

Prime Minister Wen's face was dark.

Because of this incident, he was repeatedly made things difficult by the emperor.

He just wanted to test the emperor's attitude, but he didn't expect that the regent was not afraid of superiority at all, and he accepted the job generously.

Could it be that he really planned to...seek to seize the throne?

If this is the case, the regent Gu Ji is destined to be the enemy of the Wen family.

"Regent, why are you bothering? This is not the first time that floods in the south of the Yangtze River have been solved. No one before has been able to solve it. I think I am not as good as you, the regent, because you have extraordinary means to solve the floods in the south of the Yangtze River and make the people happy and worry-free."

Isn’t your regent very powerful?

The emperor is afraid of your power and methods in the court, and your death is not far away.

Unexpectedly, the regent did not act as usual and accepted his compliments with peace of mind.

"Prime Minister Wen finally admitted that he is incompetent, and that's right...how can those wine sacks and rice bags taught by Prime Minister Wen have this ability? For the sake of the people of the world, I have no choice but to risk my life and take on this heavy responsibility."
