The eldest lady is reborn, get out of the way!

Chapter 414: The Broken Ship Still Has Three Nails

After the Tibetan king Esusu arrived in Beijing, King Xuan was in charge of all affairs.

King Xuan had previously asked King Fu how he entertained the Tibetan king, and he probably took Essu through the same process.

Afterwards, King Xuan had a detailed discussion with Essu on his experience in horse breeding.

This won great praise from Emperor Rong'an.

If all the horses in the army were so strong and hardy, it would naturally be a major factor in victory in battle.

Because King Xuan was efficient in his work, many ministers in the court also praised him highly.

In the past, people thought that King Xuan was fond of pleasure and did not pay much attention to government affairs. Unexpectedly, he is still treated differently when he gets things done now.

King Xuan's good reputation began to spread in the court like a strong wind.

When the King of Wei learned about this, he became a little uneasy.

When the Princess of Wei entered the palace to meet the Princess of Chen, the Prince of Wei also mentioned this matter to the Princess of Chen.

The King of Wei's usually smiling face was no longer smiling, only cruelty remained: "If you allow him to continue to grow like this, where will I, your son, have a place in the court in the future?"

The Concubine Chen glanced at the King of Wei and said, "The more this is the case, the more we should not be anxious."

"In everything, the one who can't hold back loses first."

The King of Wei has always been calm, but now he is becoming more and more anxious for some reason.

Hearing Concubine Chen say this, he frowned unhappily: "Mother, what time is it now? Are you not in a hurry?"

"Do we really have to wait until he becomes the crown prince before we start to worry?"

In a hurry, the King of Wei even lost his manners towards Concubine Chen.

Concubine Chen looked at King Wei indifferently. King Wei knew he had lost his composure and stood up to apologize to Concubine Chen: "I spoke out of turn, please forgive me, mother."

The concubine did not speak, but looked at the King of Wei. After a long while, she said, "You want to use Longyi's marriage to increase your chances of succession."

King Wei's heart skipped a beat, and he didn't say a word for a while.

The Concubine Chen continued, "You don't have to guess anything. She is willing, but now that you have this idea, I'm afraid your father will not approve it."

Hearing what Concubine Chen said, the King of Wei couldn't help but become even more annoyed: "Mother, please think of a way for your son."

Concubine Chen had tried to sound out Emperor Rong'an regarding Longyi's marriage.

But as soon as she mentioned the son of the Minister of Rites, Emperor Rong'an looked at her solemnly.

At that moment, Concubine Chen almost thought that Emperor Rong'an had seen through her.

The Concubine Chen calmed herself down, dismissed her attendants, and left only the Prince of Wei.

Only Concubine Chen and the Prince of Wei and his mother were left in the palace.

Concubine Chen looked at King Wei and said, "Yan'er, tell me how much you want to become the crown prince."

"Do you want to become the heir to the throne even if it means using any means necessary, even if it hurts the heaven and earth?"

The King of Wei's heart trembled slightly, and when he heard what Concubine Chen said, he nodded almost without hesitation.

"My son was born the eldest son of the emperor. The position of crown prince should be mine!"

The King of Wei said this very firmly.

He was the eldest son since birth and was taught by great scholars since childhood. He was well versed in poetry, literature and etiquette.

He should be the most suitable heir to my father's throne!

Concubine Chen showed a somewhat strange smile and said to the King of Wei: "Good boy, if your father won't give you the position of Crown Prince, then let your mother get it for you."

When the King of Wei heard what Concubine Chen said, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy: "Mother..."

Concubine Chen looked at King Wei with fierce eyes: "The Xie family can't lose again, and neither can you!"

"Mother has made preparations. Remember to plan well with your uncle."

The King of Wei seemed to have heard a hint of danger in the Concubine Chen's words, and at this moment he felt the blood in his body heating up.

"Mother..."

The concubine motioned him to shut up and continued, "Jiang Wei is on your side. He has half of the Kyoto guards. Your uncle will find a way to deal with the others."

"It's time for your staff to do something good for you."

The King of Wei understood his mother's meaning almost instantly.

The King of Wei was shocked at first by his mother's boldness, but then he thought it was as it should be!

If the emperor continues to favor Ying Shuo like this, how can he have a place in the court?

He is the eldest son of the emperor, isn't he worthy of the position of crown prince?

Since the emperor doesn't want to give it to you, don't blame him for reaching out to take it.

When Concubine Chen saw the Prince of Wei's expression changing and becoming more determined, she smiled with satisfaction.

"Your father has been unwell recently, so you should stop caring about the affairs of the court and serve him more."

Concubine Chen reminded King Wei: "It would be good to bring Yun'er to the palace to see Grandfather Huang more often."

"They are very diligent in going to the Queen Mother's Palace."

The "side" that Chen Fei was referring to was naturally the Imperial Concubine and Prince Xuan.

A cold light flashed in the King of Wei's eyes: "My son understands."

The concubine was very proud, and the grievances that had accumulated in her heart had dissipated a lot: "Take good care of your princess's body, she is pregnant with your eldest son."

When the King of Wei heard the words "eldest son", his eyes flickered, but he still agreed.

The Concubine Chen also could not stay alone with the Prince of Wei for too long, so she simply said these words and let the Prince of Wei and his wife leave the palace.

Wen Yanzhen was sitting in the carriage with King Wei, and she could keenly perceive the changes in King Wei's mood.

During these days, King Xuan could be said to be pursuing the enemy relentlessly, and his momentum was rising rapidly.

It is precisely for this reason that the King of Wei was very worried about this matter.

After coming out of the Concubine Chen Palace, the aura around Prince Wei seemed different.

"Why are you looking at me like that, Princess?" King Wei looked at Wen Yanzhen.

Wen Yanzhen touched her belly and smiled: "Did the prince get any good advice from mother? He looks much happier."

King Wei's trust in Wen Yanzhen is second only to that in Concubine Chen, and even higher than that in his uncle Xie Ji.

He knew very well that what Wen Yan really wanted was exactly the same thing as he wanted.

Power and status, these are what they want.

However, the matter that my mother mentioned was of great importance, and the King of Wei had no intention of telling Wen Yanzhen directly.

"Princess, you have a keen eye. Now you just need to take good care of yourself and give birth to a legitimate son for me one day."

King Wei also raised his hand and gently placed it on Wen Yanzhen's lower abdomen.

Wen Yanzhen smiled. She didn't need the King of Wei to reveal every word he said to her.

As long as she knew that Concubine Chen had another plan, she would feel much more at ease.

After all, Concubine Chen has been in the harem for many years, and her network of contacts is unmatched by a princess like herself.

The Xie family will not collapse immediately.

A broken ship still has three thousand nails, not to mention that Xie Ji is still alive.

I just don’t know if what Concubine Chen thinks is the same as what she thinks.

Wen Yanzhen looked at King Wei with a gentle smile in her eyes. The identity of King Wei's wife was indeed noble.

But the status of Crown Princess and Queen is more honorable.

In order to obtain this honor, she is willing to pay the price.

At this moment, the thoughts in the minds of the King of Wei and his wife miraculously became unified.

Gain power first, and you can give up everything else.

Wen Yanzhen slowly lowered her head and made up her mind.
