After being told half-truths and half-falsehoods by Xu Shihuan, Li Yunfeng obviously accepted his fate. Originally, he guessed that his father was planning to pass the throne to Wen Yidi, and he was so angry that he wanted to fight him to the death.

However, looking at the current situation, Xu Shihuan and Wen Yidi are not of the same mind. They say that the enemy of his enemy is his friend, so he simply went along with Xu Shihuan's wishes to see what her plans were.

As a result, the private soldiers Xu Shihuan secretly kept around Yong'an City became legitimate because of Li Yunfeng's existence. If Wen Yidi did not betray her trust, everything would naturally proceed smoothly according to their previous plan.

If Wen Yidi has his own selfish motives, then the Xu family can use Li Yunfeng as a cover and try their best to protect themselves, or even replace him.

After settling the matter with Li Yunfeng, Xu Shihuan left the dungeon, washed himself carefully, and entered the palace in a carriage. What awaits her in the palace is probably a fierce battle.

"Shihuan, come and sit down quickly. The whole family doesn't have to do all this nonsense."

The queen mother and the eldest princess greeted each other warmly with smiles on their faces. There was no other way, Xu Shihuan could only put on a smiling face, and quickly called the Queen Mother and aunt.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, the eldest princess's face changed and she said seriously:

"Shihuan, since your husband Wen Yidi has recognized his ancestor and returned to the clan, should your title be changed?"

Hearing what she said, Xu Shihuan suddenly realized that Wen Yidi's identity was different from the past, and his title should also change. However, without the opportunity to change her words and offer tea, she just called the eldest princess mother. Is it inappropriate?

But in this situation, she couldn't think about it too much. Xu Shihuan quickly stood up, saluted the Queen Mother and the eldest princess, and shouted respectfully:

"Royal grandmother, mother."

The Queen Mother glanced at Xu Shihuan, showed a half-smiling expression, and then said:

"Shihuan, the Ai family remembers that you haven't served us tea yet. You changed your tune all of a sudden. In terms of etiquette, isn't it appropriate?"

Although Xu Shihuan found what the eldest princess said earlier to be harsh, he still couldn't determine the true attitude of the two people in front of him. But as soon as the Queen Mother said these words, she could already conclude that the purpose of letting her enter the palace today was to find trouble.

Therefore, Xu Shihuan could only hold on to the smile on his face, lowered his head and said yes. She knew in her heart that what happened today would not end easily. As expected, with this excuse, the Queen Mother and the Eldest Princess revealed their true thoughts.

"Although your child is more capable than other women, you are still young after all, so you don't speak and act properly. But this is normal. When the Ai family was as old as you, they thought they could be as omnipotent as men. "

The Queen Mother said, showing a helpless smile and continued:

"But later I learned that things in this world cannot be forced. We women should be good wives to our husbands, so that our lives can become more prosperous as time goes by."

Hearing what the Queen Mother said, Xu Shihuan couldn't help but feel a little regretful. The Queen Mother, who once founded a women's school, eventually forgot her original intention many years later when faced with the blood of her family.

Seeing that Xu Shihuan remained silent, the eldest princess spoke again to persuade:

"Mom knows in her heart that you want to be strong since you were a child and want to compete with men. Even when you and Wen Yidi got married, you could figure out a way for this woman to marry a man. But the problem is, with Wen Yidi's current status , this is inappropriate."

Identity?

At this moment, Xu Shihuan suddenly felt more empathy for Wen Yidi. In the past, Wen Yidi didn't fight or grab in front of her, and didn't even dare to say a word "no". In the final analysis, it is all because of his identity as a businessman.

But now, Wen Yidi has become the son of the eldest princess, and is now the best candidate to inherit the throne. The status between Xu Shihuan and him has suddenly been reversed.

"The Queen Mother, the eldest princess, but I..."

Before she could say her rejection, the eldest princess took hold of Xu Shihuan's hand and said sincerely:

"Mom said this for your own good. You have to know that Wen Yidi's status will only get higher and higher in the future. If you don't change your mind, you will be the one who gets hurt in the future."

At this time, the Queen Mother also took the initiative and said:

"Grandma Huang can see that you are a good boy and have feelings for Wen Yidi. As a woman, it is very inconvenient for you to work in the Ministry of Justice. In my opinion, you should not go to the Ministry of Justice these days. I will tell the Emperor. "

"You just live in the palace and learn the rules steadily for a few months. They will come in handy in the future. Besides, you two are not too young now, so it's time to have a child."

When the child was mentioned, the eldest princess immediately became energetic and added:

"This woman, you still have to have a child. Now is a good time for you to have a child. It's just you and Wen Yidi, without all those messy things. If in the future..."

Halfway through her words, the eldest princess noticed the displeasure in the Queen Mother's eyes and immediately changed her words:

"When Wen Yidi gets busy in the future, my child can accompany you to relieve your boredom, right?"

Although the eldest princess had not finished her words, Xu Shihuan had already guessed what she meant. According to the thinking of this group of people, now that the emperor has very few heirs, it is difficult to find Wen Yidi, but no more accidents can happen.

Therefore, the days before Wen Yidi ascended the throne were probably the last time the two of them could get along alone. Once Wen Yidi becomes emperor, the harem will probably be full soon.

However, this is their wishful thinking after all, and Xu Shihuan will never allow this to happen. So, she pretended to be panicked and said timidly:

"Royal Grandmother, Mother, I know in my heart that you are all saying this for my own good. However, I studied hard back then and spent a lot of effort to get to where I am today."

"So, I don't want to give up just like that. I know that if Wen Yidi gets really busy one day, I'm afraid I will never have the chance to live like this again."

"So, I want to be willful for once. Just take pity on me and let me live a free life for a while."

Xu Shihuan stared into the Queen Mother's eyes as he spoke. She could finally see that although the eldest princess spoke eloquently, the person who made the final decision was the Queen Mother.

"You kid, why don't you listen to my advice? What if you..."

As soon as she heard this, the eldest princess became anxious. She had just said a few words when the Queen Mother stopped her:

"Jiayi, please stop saying a few words."

After saying that, the Queen Mother looked at Xu Shihuan, sighed helplessly and said:

"Since this is your idea, then Aijia will obey you once. However, if you miss this opportunity, don't say you regret it in front of Aijia in the future."
