It was not until today that the princess realized Madam Tan Tai’s painstaking efforts. The princess said: "Mother, why didn't you tell me earlier!"
Madam Tan Tai said, "The overall situation is not yet determined, how dare I speak rashly."
The princess lowered her head, feeling very annoyed. If she had known that the Crown Prince would die and Prince Yan would ascend the throne, she would never have cooperated with Prince Heng.
The prince had clearly recovered from his illness, so why did he suddenly die?
Madam Tan Tai held the princess's hand and said, "I told you long ago that you don't have to bother with the Shen family. The emperor is ruthless. The Shen family was once so glorious, but now they have angered the new emperor and are not even qualified to enter the palace. So, you have to look further ahead. No one can be glorious all their lives. No matter how high you climb, you will always fall down."
The princess lowered her eyes.
Yes, she regarded the Shen family as a thorn in her side, and even joined forces with Prince Heng to assassinate Shen Wei. But in the end, Shen Wei brought her own death upon herself...
The old lady taught earnestly: "As long as you work hard and don't make big mistakes, the new emperor will definitely not depose you."
When the new emperor ascends the throne, he will not treat the queen harshly for the time being. In order to appease the people, the new emperor had to pretend to be in love with the queen.
The princess forced a smile, feeling very guilty. She had actually made a big mistake by colluding with Prince Heng and almost killing Prince Yan...
The princess could only comfort herself that Prince Heng had escaped and the new emperor was now busy with state affairs and had no time to investigate old accounts.
Her collusion with King Heng should not be exposed.
Taking a deep breath, the princess looked at her mother and smiled obediently: "Don't worry, I... I certainly won't do anything to hurt the emperor. I will listen to you and will definitely hold on to the position of queen."
Madam Tan Tai was very pleased: "Now that you are the queen, don't burn incense and worship Buddha every day. Manage the harem well and don't let the concubines take away your right to manage the six palaces. The Xie family and the Lu family are ready to send their daughters to the palace. The daughters of those two families should not be underestimated. Mother has selected four smart and clever maids for you to help you manage the harem."
The princess nodded firmly: "Okay."
With the blessing of Bodhisattva, God finally stood on her side. This time, the princess will firmly grasp the power in her hands and never give other women any chance to take advantage of her.
