Chapter 492: Mutual Calculation
It's not that Qiong Xiao hadn't thought about the Golden Armor Army, but Rongxue didn't take the Golden Armor Army back. Could he still get it from Yunyan?
"Although Yunyan is a little useless, she is not a fool."
"Isn't it the friendship between you three sisters that Yunyan values most?" Xingye asked, "As long as you are the weaker party, she will definitely hand over the Golden Armor Army to you."
"But the current emperor sister will never act rashly."
"If Your Majesty didn't want to act rashly, you wouldn't have held a banquet to celebrate for you." Xingye said firmly, "Have you forgotten our other move? Without Yunzhong, there is still the Minnan area. The rebellion there has probably reached Your Majesty's ears. Next, let's see what Your Majesty will do."
Qiong Xiao looked at Xingye with admiration: "Xingye, I didn't misjudge you at the beginning. When he ascends to the throne, he will definitely ensure that you are second only to him and above everyone else."
Xingye smiled and said nothing more, but the smile did not reach his eyes. Since ancient times, the royal family has been ruthless. He believed every word Qiongxiao said. He had only one purpose from beginning to end...
At dusk on the second day, dinner would have been delivered to Tingyuzhai at this time usually, but today there was nothing.
After Lianxiang went to ask, she found out that Su Chenyu was also invited to attend the dinner in the front hall.
"Your Majesty is so interesting. Why didn't you tell me earlier that I wanted to invite you to the dinner?" Lianxiang complained a little.
Su Chenyu understood Rongxue's thoughts: "I'm afraid she originally wanted to test Qiongxiao today, and on a whim, she wanted to test me and Prince Zhao as well."
Hearing Su Chenyu mention King Zhao, Lianxiang became nervous: "Could it be that His Majesty has also invited King Zhao? But Qiongxiao has been here for a long time, why would he invite King Zhao?"
Lianxiang obviously didn't believe Su Chenyu. Su Chenyu looked at Lianxiang and said, "How about we make a bet?"
"How do you bet?"
"If Queen Rongxue invites Prince Zhao, you lose. After losing, you will return to Dayu with me."
Lianxiang did not agree immediately: "I am a maid in Prince Zhao's mansion. How can I go back to Dayu with you just because of a bet?"
"What if King Zhao also comes with me?"
Lianxiang hesitated for a while. She knew that King Zhao had not been happy at all in Nanyue over the years. If he could leave here, King Zhao would definitely be willing to do so.
"Your Majesty will not let Prince Zhao leave."
"When she can't protect herself, will she still care about King Zhao?"
Lianxiang said firmly: "Miss, if you can really let King Zhao leave with you, then I will definitely follow you until my death."
Hearing this, Su Chenyu smiled and said, "You are loyal to King Zhao."
"Your Highness Prince Zhao is like a second mother to me."
Su Chenyu stood up and said, "Since His Majesty has invited me to the banquet, it's getting late, let's go."
Lianxiang asked, "Don't you need to change your clothes, young lady?"
Su Chenyu didn't dress up specially, and her whole body exuded a simple and elegant beauty: "No need, anyway, today I'm not here to compete for beauty. Since I'm a guest, I can't steal the limelight from others."
Lianxiang looked at Su Chenyu. Even if she put on makeup, she was still not as good as Rongxue. No wonder Prince Zhao looked down on Rongxue before. Miss Su's courage and insight were not something that ordinary people could compare to.
When Su Chenyu entered the palace, she ran into Jiang Zhi walking over. Jiang Zhi looked at Su Chenyu and was not surprised: "The emperor also invited you?"
Su Chenyu nodded: "Your Majesty and Qiong Xiaoxiao are really sisters with deep affection. They invited so many people to come over to celebrate the birthday."
"Your Highness Prince Zhao, Miss Su, what are you talking about at the door?" Qiong Xiao walked over from not far away.
Jiang Zhi never liked Qiong Xiao: "Nothing."
