Chapter 796: Imperial Master: It’s best to plot for the position of Queen
Lan Ruo has always been a little afraid of Shen Hanqing.
She asked tentatively, "What brings the Queen here?"
Shen Hanqing glanced at the palace maids around her. Lan Ruo understood and sent all the palace maids away.
Only then did Shen Hanqing speak: "Dongfang Jin wants to blow the pillow wind and instigate the emperor to kill my father."
Lan Ruo nodded.
Shen Hanqing said again: “My purpose in coming to you is very simple. No matter what method you use, it is best to protect the Shen family.”
Lan Ruo opened her mouth, "What if, what if I can't do it?"
Shen Hanqing looked at her, “You can do it.”
Lan Ruo tried to explain, "If I don't follow Dongfang Jin's orders, what will Dongfang Jin think of me?"
"He'll probably feel like I betrayed him!"
Shen Hanqing asked calmly: "What are you expecting?"
Lan Ruo was startled, trying to hide something, "I... I don't have any extravagant expectations, I just..."
However, Lan Ruo didn't even have the ability to lie.
Shen Hanqing's tone was almost ruthless, "Let me guess, what did Dongfang Jin promise you."
"Promise that when he ascends the throne, you will be the queen who rules the country?"
Lan Ruo's eyes were a little evasive, obviously Shen Hanqing had guessed it right.
Shen Hanqing smiled. These people's thoughts were really easy to guess.
She continued, "So what do you want? The throne of Queen?"
Lan Ruo quickly retorted, "Of course not!"
Shen Hanqing nodded, and suddenly realized: “That is, you like Dongfang Jin.”
Lan Ruo wanted to deny it, but Shen Hanqing's gaze made it impossible for her to deny it.
Because Shen Hanqing's gaze seemed to be able to see through her.
Shen Hanqing’s voice still had no emotion, “You are now the emperor’s favorite concubine.”
"No, maybe it's the evil concubine who brought disaster to the country."
"That's probably what people outside are saying about you."
"Let's speculate that Dongfang Jin will ascend to the throne in the future."
"Could he have made the former dynasty's evil concubine the empress? It seems impossible."
"If you want to become the queen, you have to change your name."
"So, is Lan Ruo your real name?"
Lan Ruo said somewhat weakly: "Yes."
Shen Hanqing didn't care about Lan Ruo's answer, "Even if you became the queen, with three thousand beauties in your harem, you would become what I am now, and others might become the same as you."
She was not exaggerating. In the plot of this world, after Dongfang Jin ascended the throne, he also had three thousand beauties in his harem.
Shen Hanqing's words, like thorns, pierced directly into Lan Ruo's heart, "You can plot against Dongfang Jin's position as queen, but if you want to plot against Dongfang Jin's heart, then you are too stupid."
Lan Ruo said in a state of collapse: "That's enough! Isn't it enough that I promised you?"
"I will find a way to protect the Shen family!"
Shen Hanqing was very satisfied with Lan Ruo's reaction. "Finally, I'll give you a suggestion. If you are plotting to become the queen, maybe you can try to get the emperor to do the opposite of what he did before."
After saying that, Shen Hanqing turned and left.
When she reached the door, she heard Lan Ruo mutter, "How could he really listen to me in everything?"
Shen Hanqing didn't look back, "How can you know if you don't try?"
After leaving, Shen Hanqing said to 333: "Replay the plot for me to watch again."
333 immediately gave the plot to Shen Hanqing.
Shen Hanqing flipped through the pages quickly, then stopped at the story about how the heroine Lan Ruo and the hero Dongfang Jin met.
The plot says that Lan Ruo and Dongfang Jin have known each other since they were very young.
At that time, Dongfang Jin followed the late emperor to hunt, and the young boy accidentally got lost.
He also fell into a trap used to catch animals.
It was Lan Ruo who saved him.
The two of them spent some time together.
Young Dongfang Jin promised Lan Ruo that he would come back to marry her when he grew up.
So Lan Ruo gave Dongfang Jin a purse she had embroidered.
Later, the two of them recognized each other through this purse.
This is why Lan Ruo trusts Dongfang Jin so much.
However, there is a problem in this plot. When Dongfang Jin was a child, he did not tell Lan Ruo his name.
For safety reasons.
This plot may not be a problem if you watch it alone.
But there is something strange about the fact that Emperor Dongfang Tuo unconditionally dotes on Lan Ruo.
How should I put it? If the emperor was simply obsessed with beauty, would he really be so obedient to Lan Ruo that he would ruin his country?
Anyway, Shen Hanqing has seen all kinds of bloody plots.
Then could she make a bold guess that perhaps the person Lan Ruo saved back then was not Dongfang Jin, but Emperor Dongfang Tuo.
The one who made the promise to Lan Ruo was not Dongfang Jin, but Dongfang Tuo?
If that's the case, then it would be really fun.
As for whether it is really as Shen Hanqing thinks, we will know after checking.
The next morning, Jun Wu Yue came with his men.
Then Chen Hanqing entered the Stargazing Tower.
Shen Hanqing didn't hesitate and said to Jun Wuyue directly: "Then let's go, Master Guoshi."
Jun Wu Yue smiled and said, "Your Majesty, will you just... follow me into the Stargazing Tower?"
Shen Hanqing met Jun Wuyue's gaze and said, "I thought that the Imperial Master would prepare everything I needed, right?"
Jun Wu Yue was silent for a moment, then replied, "I think so."
Shen Hanqing looked at his expression with a hint of disgust, "Then why are you still talking nonsense? Let's go."
The painted fan had been left in the Shen Mansion by Shen Hanqing, so the one who followed Jun Wuyue to the Stargazing Tower was only Shen Hanqing.
On the way to the Stargazing Tower, Jun Wu Yue said, "I thought the Queen would bring your personal maid with her."
Shen Hanqing didn't even give him a glance, "Master Guoshi will arrange everything."
Jun Wu Yue was speechless. This seemed a little different from what he had expected.
He brought Shen Hanqing to his side so that everything could be under control and he could take the initiative.
But somehow I feel like I am in a passive position.
The Stargazing Tower is called a tower, but it is actually a particularly large mansion in the palace.
But its location is relatively remote in the palace.
And it looks out of place in the luxurious palace.
However, it is also consistent with the feeling of National Master Jun Wu Yue who is not interested in worldly affairs.
Jun Wu Yue said, "I have already sent someone to clean up the Queen's residence."
Shen Hanqing tilted her head, "Where do you live?"
Jun Wu Yue looked at Shen Han Qing, smiled, raised his hand and pointed to a real building in the Stargazing Tower, "There."
Shen Hanqing nodded, “Then I will live there too.”
After saying this, without giving Jun Wu Yue a chance to react, he went into the building.
Jun Wu Yue stood there for a while, his smile unconsciously widening a little.
Then he hurried to catch up, "I'm afraid not."
"The Queen and I still need to avoid suspicion."
