【Rebirth】Emperor's favorite

"The imperial concubine is a smart person, so the concubine will not beat around the bush."

Although the prime minister's wife said that she would not beat around the bush, she paused for a moment and carefully looked at Shao Zixiao's reaction.

Shao Zixiao was still smiling.

"Mother, if you have anything to say, please speak up."

"Does the imperial concubine still remember your cousin?"

Shao Zixiao was taken aback when he heard this, and then said:

"I have a little impression, but I can't remember clearly, it seems to be called Qin Shuangxue?"

"It's called Shuangxue!"

"Okay, but mother, why do you mention her?"

"Do you know that recently all the ministers are urging His Majesty to choose a talent show in order to enrich the harem and breed dragon heirs. It is better to let the master be the representative to hand over the papers."

When Shao Zixiao heard this, his heart ached.

My husband is about to choose a concubine...and my father persuaded me...

Oh, what is all this?

Seeing that Shao Zixiao's expression became increasingly ugly, Fu Ling hurriedly said to the prime minister's wife:

"Ma'am, where did you hear about it? Your Majesty has never said that he is going to be drafted. Please don't talk nonsense!"

"But the imperial concubine should also know that this draft will happen sooner or later. Especially, your majesty, you can't give birth to an heir for your majesty."

"Mother is right, this draft... is definitely going to be selected. However, although His Majesty favors me, it is impossible to tell me everything. Therefore, I don't know about this matter yet."

"Although I am not your biological mother, I have worked hard to bring you up. Tell me, should you repay me?"

"It's natural. I just don't know how mother wants me to repay you?"

"You also know your father. I have always had a bad relationship with him, so I didn't give birth to a son and a half daughter. Your cousin is born of my sister with the same father and mother. I have always regarded her as my own. My own daughter treats it."

"Mother, what exactly do you want to say?"

"You are His Majesty's pillow now. As long as you are willing to say one or two good words, isn't it a certainty that your cousin will enter the harem through the draft?"

When Shao Zixiao was drinking tea and heard this, he almost choked on laughter.

Fu Ling hurriedly patted his back.

"Master, are you okay? Do you want to pass on the imperial physician?"

"Haha...cough cough, no need!"

Seeing this, the prime minister's wife turned pale.

"My lady, what do you mean?"

"Mother, you really think highly of me. To put it nicely, I am His Majesty's noble concubine, but to put it bluntly, I am just a little male favorite by His Majesty's side."

The prime minister's wife didn't expect that Shao Zixiao would be so self-deprecating in order to reject her, and she didn't dare to answer for a while.

"Whoever your majesty wants to enter the harem and whom you want to favor depends on your majesty's own will. I don't dare to set myself ablaze. You can just let Sister Shuangxue participate in the draft. If she is really outstanding, I don't need to tell you." What, His Majesty will also spoil her alone. But if she is not good-looking and has no ability, then why bother to come to a place like the harem?"

Shao Zixiao's words were spoken in a leisurely and well-founded manner.The prime minister's wife's originally prepared remarks were blocked by him.

Seeing this, Fu Ling said to the prime minister's wife:

"Madam Prime Minister, my master is tired. If you have nothing to do, please go back first."

"...Well then, the concubine disturbed the imperial concubine today."

"Why bother me? Talking to my mother, I'm not tired at all, it's all Fu Ling talking nonsense. Fu Ling, why don't you apologize to the prime minister's wife and send her out."

"You don't need to bother Miss Fuling, the concubine can just go out by herself."

"Okay, mother often visits her son when she is free."

Just as the prime minister's wife was about to leave the room, she suddenly turned around again and said to Shao Zixiao:

"Isn't the imperial concubine curious, who is your biological mother?"

When Shao Zixiao heard this, he immediately stood up from the stool.

"Do you know who she is?"

Seeing Shao Zixiao's expression, the prime minister's wife knew that she had a bargaining chip, so she walked slowly to Shao Zixiao's side, and whispered in his ear:

"How could I not know."

Shaozi said with red eyes:

"Please tell me who she is!"

"However, this can be regarded as the secret of the Prime Minister's Mansion. I'm afraid it's not good for the imperial concubine to let so many people hear about it? I'm fine. I'm afraid the impression of the Prime Minister in people's hearts will be greatly reduced!"

"Fu Ling, you take them down."

"But master—"

"Come down!"

"Yes."

Fu Ling had no choice but to take all the maids and eunuchs out of the room.

Seeing that they had all left, Shao Zixiao begged the prime minister's wife in a low voice:

"Mother, please tell me, who is my birth?"

"That's all you want to know?"

"of course."

"I can tell you, but you have to agree to one condition. Let Your Majesty take Shuangxue into the harem and make her a queen."

"...Your condition is so ridiculous. If I had the ability, His Majesty would have made me a queen long ago."

"That's right. Then, it's fine to make her a noble concubine."

"...Mother, can't you change the conditions?"

"I don't lack money, I only lack status."

"But you are already the prime minister's wife, what kind of status do you want?!"

"Oh, you also know your father, he may divorce me at any time!"

"As long as you keep yourself safe, Dad won't do that."

"Only when my niece becomes queen can I feel at ease!"

"Sorry, I really don't have the ability."

"Aren't you very good at charming and seducing the Lord in your daily life? I really didn't see it before, you are this kind of guy!"

"Is that enough? Please go back!"

"If you don't agree to me today, you will never know who your biological person is."

"It's okay, I can still ask my dad anyway!"

"Heh, don't you still dream of getting a few words from your father? You and your brother have been asking for so many years, does he want to tell you at all?"

"I don't need to bother you about this! Please go out."

The prime minister's wife turned around and walked slowly, saying as she walked:

"Shao Zixiao, Shao Zixiao, you have lived your life in such a muddled way. It's okay to marry a man for no reason, but you don't even know who you were born with. It's so pitiful!"

Just as the prime minister's wife walked to the door and was about to open it, Shao Zixiao suddenly said loudly to her:

"Wait a minute! I agree to your terms!"
