[Oh my, old lady, such acting skills! Yesterday, she wanted to beat her mother to death, but today, they are as close as sisters. Oscar owes you a little golden man.]
Oscar? Golden statue?
Xiao Hanyi and the Second Prince didn't understand.
The second prince stepped forward and saluted with a smile, "Your son congratulates Queen Mother Guo. From now on, Queen Mother Guo will treat me as her own son."
Guo Xiner's mind had stopped working at this moment. In the past two days, she had been to the gate of the King of Hell and then directly to a paradise-like state. Her reserves were no longer enough.
"No need to be so polite, Second Prince," she said simply. If she said more, it might be wrong, but if she said less, there would be no problem.
She really didn't know what was going on. She could only watch these banished immortal-like characters from afar before, but she never expected that she would be where she is today. Everything seemed so unreal.
Xiao Hanyi was thinking about what Xiao Jiayun had just said. He stroked his forehead with his hand. Today he finally understood what it meant to be extremely anxious and desperate.
He wanted to carry out drastic reforms, but the Ministry of Revenue said that there was no money in the treasury, which was a constraint in every way.
Xiao Hanyi was listening to Guo Xiner and Concubine Heng chatting and laughing, when suddenly an idea came to him: why not ask the little one?
He cleared his throat and they both paused, sighing just loud enough for them to hear.
"Is the emperor worried about something?" Concubine Heng asked with concern.
Otherwise, why are you sighing for no reason? I and Guo are getting along so well, and I haven't caused you any trouble at all.
Xiao Hanyi said, "These are all matters of the court. I want to do something, but the Ministry of Revenue told me that it has no money."
Concubine Heng said, "Shut up. It's useless to ask her if you don't have money. She can't solve the problem."
[I thought it was something else, but it turns out it's money. Isn't that simple? Just go to the wealthy areas of Jiangnan and collect it.]
Xiao Hanyi was ashamed. What kind of idea was this? Didn't he know Jiangnan was rich? But he had sent three imperial envoys in a row, and all of them had been imprisoned.
They all came back as if possessed by evil spirits and refused to repent.
"The people I sent to Jiangnan to collect taxes were all captured by them with money," Xiao Hanyi continued to ask.
If they want to collect the taxes they owe, the heroine must appear. She is Liu Qian, the concubine of the Imperial Court Doctor Liu Yan. Letting her go is a sure thing. She was also a book traveler, but she was unlucky and only traveled through time as the concubine of a fifth-rank official. She lived a very depressed life at home.
[However, I am the heroine, and the daughter-in-law of my tyrant father. In the end, I ascended the throne of empress and participated in government affairs as empress, fulfilling your long-cherished wish. The Southern Liang Kingdom became rich and strong.]
[Tyrant Daddy, hurry up and invite my heroine's sister-in-law out]
Although Xiao Hanyi was shocked, he finally got the name. Liu Qian? Liu Yan's concubine. He didn't have much impression of this Liu Yan.
He was relieved to hear the news; his wish had finally come true.
The Second Prince was shocked. If Liu Qian could become the Queen, did that mean that if he married her, he would be able to ascend to the throne? This news was too important, too important. He would go find Liu Yan soon.
He just accepted the news and was now secretly planning how to marry her.
Concubine Heng glanced at the second prince and saw that he was frowning. She didn't know what he was thinking. This child was so abnormal today.
She always felt that her son was a little straightforward and simple-minded, far inferior to her. But this child had one good thing: he was broad-minded. Many things would make others cry for two days, but to him, they were just a small matter.
One of his beloved concubines died of illness. Everyone thought that he would be sad but the servants around the second prince said that the second prince just stared at the flowers in the yard for a while and the matter passed like that.
Concubine Heng slapped herself in her heart. Why was she thinking about these things at this time? She originally wanted to get an explanation and make a fuss, but who knew what was wrong with this stupid son.
He insisted that she and Guo get together. I have never seen such a thing before. I will go back and ask him in detail. He'd better give a reason. Otherwise, humph, I will break his legs.
I’m so pissed off, Concubine Heng cursed in her heart.
"Your Majesty, I will take Hui'er and take my leave first."
Concubine Heng thought that she couldn't make a fuss, it was useless here, it would be better to leave early. She felt upset just looking at Guo.
Xiao Hanyi nodded, "I am about to review the memorials, you can leave as well."
He pointed at Concubine Guo and said that he had received too much information today and his head was full. He needed to digest it well.
I really can't stay with this little guy for too long, he'll really die sooner.
The three of them saluted Xiao Hanyi and retreated together.
After leaving Weiyang Palace, the Second Prince said with a smile, "When you are free in the future, please invite Mother Guo to visit my Mother's Palace."
Guo Xiner was both happy and surprised when she heard this. It seemed that the second prince was not as naughty as the legend said. He was so kind when she met him today. It seemed that the rumors were not credible.
She smiled and nodded, and said to Concubine Heng, "If you don't mind me being a nuisance, I will definitely go."
Concubine Heng took Guo Xiner's hand and said with fake anger, "Sister, if you keep saying this, I will be angry. I haven't even waited for you to come, so how can you think I am annoying? Don't talk like this anymore."
Guo Xiner couldn't stand her enthusiasm. She just complained in her heart but didn't dare to show it on her face. She smiled and said, "I remember what you said, sister."
Hahaha, a burst of hearty laughter.
The laughter just happened to reach the queen's ears, and this heartwarming scene just happened to fall into her eyes.
Queen Wang fainted on the spot. How could Concubine Heng be so familiar with Concubine Guo? Is this okay?
When did they get together?
Given Concubine Heng's personality, she would definitely make a big fuss if Xiao Hanyi did this. What happened today?
Did I really see a ghost in broad daylight?
Concubine Heng also noticed the queen in the distance and smiled even more brightly, "Sister, go to my palace in the future to try the cooking skills of the small kitchen. I guarantee that you will be satisfied."
"If you have any troubles in the future, tell your sister."
"Since this is your first pregnancy, you must have a lot of questions in your mind. Just ask me. How to protect the fetus, what to pay attention to during pregnancy, and what to pay attention to during childbirth, all of these are things you need to know."
Every time Concubine Heng spoke, Guo Xiner nodded. She couldn't get a word in. She just hoped that this enthusiastic Concubine Heng would leave as soon as possible so that she could go back to the palace and have a good rest. She was really tired today.
The Queen didn't know that Concubine Heng was doing it on purpose, and she thought that the two of them were really that intimate. Her face became more and more ugly.
Concubine Heng, a simpleton from a military family, has grown up now? She even knows how to win over the concubines with high status?
She offended all the concubines.
For the first time, the Queen became suspicious of Concubine Heng. She always thought that Concubine Heng was a brainless person who had been acting recklessly all these years. As long as she gave a few words of advice, Concubine Heng would rush forward, and she didn't have to do many things herself.
Are they all pretending?
