Su Man cleverly used Xiao Qizi to save the Queen Mother. This not only allowed her to use Xiao Qizi, but also built a bridge between her and the Queen Mother.
“.......”
Tao Yuan was confused by Su Man. After thinking for a long time, she finally reacted, "Well, what if Xiao Qizi is ungrateful?"
Su Man put down her calligraphy brush and said, "Not to mention that his behavior doesn't seem like that kind of person, just the fact that he's suddenly valued by the Queen Mother will surely cause a lot of dissatisfaction. He naturally knows that I am his support."
Tao Yuan stared blankly at Su Man who was strategizing, and suddenly she imagined a feather fan and a three-inch beard.

At night, someone from the imperial kitchen came to deliver supper.
The visitor put down the food box and knelt on the ground, "Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen."
When I looked up, who else could it be but Xiao Qizi?
Su Man laughed, "Eunuch is now someone close to the Queen Mother, why is he still doing the work in the imperial kitchen?"
Xiao Qizi was a little embarrassed and said, "It's because I'm wearing my old clothes. Otherwise, I can't enter or leave this Kunning Palace."
Then he kowtowed again and said, "I know very well that all this is due to the promotion of the Empress. If the Empress has any instructions, I will do it even if it means death."
Su Man paused for a moment, she looked at Xiao Qizi carefully, and suddenly smiled, "Since you are so grateful, then I will ask you to do me a favor."
“.......”
After Xiao Qizi left, Su Man finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as the letter could be handed over to Prime Minister Gu, the tragedy of the Gu family would be half reversed.
However..
"Are you sure this is the letter Maner brought out?"
Prime Minister Gu looked at the graffiti on the letter, confused.
Guman's eldest brother, Gurubo, said, "Father, why don't you show it to me?"
When Guman couldn't write when she was little, it was Gurubo who taught her to draw. When he heard about painting, he instantly became excited.
After receiving the letter, Gu Rubo frowned, "My little sister wants us to form an alliance with the King of Beiping."
"What?"
Prime Minister Gu took Su Man's painting and looked at it over and over again. "You didn't understand it wrongly, did you?"
"No, what I mean is, while the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. If the King of Beiping falls, we will be next."
Prime Minister Gu was silent.
He was considered an old minister of two dynasties and had assisted Murong Hong in ascending the throne. He did not expect that Murong Hong really wanted to take action against him.
But since it was Suman who brought the news, she must have known something.
After a moment, Prime Minister Gu said, "We have been fighting openly and secretly in the court for many years. How can the King of Beiping trust me if I rashly ask for peace now?"
Gu Ruobo was still analyzing the letter. "My little sister said she would ask the King of Beiping to come find us."
"What?"
Prime Minister Gu slapped his thigh and said, "Is that bastard setting his sights on Man'er again?"
At this moment, Prime Minister Gu went from being a clever and wise prime minister to a daughter slave. "Back then, he was so audacious that he asked for Man'er's hand in marriage, but I rejected him. He even wrote obscene songs to tease Man'er. Now he must still have evil intentions. How could I possibly form an alliance with such a man?"
Prime Minister Gu spoke for a long time, then turned around and met Gu Rubo's face.
Gu Ruobo's expression was indescribable. "Father, you've been targeting the Prince of Beiping. Could it be that you're angry that he covets my little sister?"
Prime Minister Gu's eyes wandered, "Nonsense, I did that for the court."
Guru: “Oh.”
