Chapter 89: The Beauty Trap May Not Be Useless Against King Xuan

"To the Queen Mother."

Xiao Jinxuan walked past a group of women and went straight to Queen Mother Yin and saluted her.

"Xuan'er, there's no need to be so polite. Come, sit down and talk to me for a while." Queen Mother Yin held the Buddhist beads in her hand and smiled kindly.

"Since the Empress Dowager has guests here, it would be better for me to come and pay my respects another day."

Xiao Jinxuan looked indifferent and had no intention of sitting down.

Queen Mother Yin scolded, "You little kid, I rarely see you, how can you leave right after you arrive?"

As he spoke, he winked at the woman closest to him.

The woman immediately picked up the tray and walked over with graceful and gentle steps, "Your Majesty, these are the little snacks I made myself."

Queen Mother Yin tasted a piece and nodded with satisfaction, "Well, not bad. Xuan'er, would you like to try it too?"

The woman passed the snacks on the tray to Xiao Jinxuan, her eyes full of affection and her voice full of tears, "Your Highness Prince Xuan, why don't you try my cooking?"

But unexpectedly, Xiao Jinxuan frowned, took two steps back like a scorpion, and kept a distance from her.

Then he raised his hand and bowed, "Your Majesty, the emperor has given me important instructions. Please forgive me for being rude. I will take my leave first."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

"Asshole!" Queen Mother Yin stared at his back and slammed the table in anger, scaring the women present so much that they trembled all over.

Xiao Jinxuan was raised by the Grand Empress Dowager since he was a child, and he had always been nice to the Empress Dowager just to give her face.

But now, he is not even willing to give me this little bit of face!

"And the rest of you, I told you to find an opportunity to have physical contact and have a skin-to-skin kiss with him, so that I can arrange a marriage for you. But you are all like wood, not even taking the initiative!"

Queen Mother Yin turned around and began to scold the women she had called into the palace.

They all came from official families of the Yongwang faction, and were all outstanding women with both talent and beauty.

But none of them caught Xiao Jinxuan's eye!

The women immediately knelt down and admitted their mistakes, but they could not hold back their grievance in their hearts.

"Empress Dowager, when His Royal Highness Prince Xuan saw us, he acted like a flood and a beast, and he moved away eight feet before we even got close. How could we stand a chance?"

Queen Mother Yin glared at them unhappily, her face full of disdain, "Useless things!"

If Xiao Jinxuan was really an airtight iron plate, why would he keep a mistress?

This shows that he is not as unlucky as the rumors say, he just hasn't met a woman who can attract his attention.

Queen Mother Yin ordered, "Go and find out the details of his concubines, and train a few of them in the same way."

Emperor Zhaowen has been summoning doctors more and more frequently recently, and I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on for much longer.

If he could take down Xiao Jinxuan, this tough guy, and make use of him, then Xiao Bicheng would completely lose the qualifications to compete with Prince Yong.

The throne should have belonged to his son.

After so many years, it's time to return the property to its original owner!

the other side.

When Xiao Bicheng heard that the Queen Mother had summoned Xiao Jinxuan, he immediately went to his own mother to discuss countermeasures.

"Mother, this is bad. The Queen Mother has called many daughters of officials from Prince Yong's party into the palace. I'm afraid she wants to arrange a marriage for Prince Xuan!"

The queen was furious when she heard this and smashed the Jian燒 set on the table. "That old witch, the emperor has just escaped from danger, and she can't wait to make trouble."

Xiao Bicheng said anxiously: "If this is the case, I'm afraid Prince Xuan will stand on Prince Yong's side!"

"Don't worry, let's go and snatch her away now!" The queen adjusted her phoenix crown and rushed towards Cining Palace with great momentum.

As a result, before he could even leave Kunning Palace, news came from there—

His Royal Highness Prince Xuan has already left the palace!

The queen was stunned for a moment, then she laughed until tears came out of her eyes, "It seems that the old witch's efforts were in vain!"

King Xuan was of upright character, and would rather bend than yield.

If coercion worked, the Empress Dowager would have forced him to marry the granddaughter of Princess Yuxian long ago. How could she have the turn to marry those ugly guys she had called into the palace?

Xiao Bicheng said, "I think the beauty trap may not be useless against King Xuan. The most important thing is whether you choose the right person."

"What do you mean?" The queen looked at him in confusion.

"My mother has been worried about my father's safety these past two days. I'm afraid she doesn't know that rumors have gone viral outside that Prince Xuan has kept a girl outside his palace. Not only did he give her his private seal, he also let Feiyun Guards be at her disposal."

This has never happened before.

This shows how important that woman is to King Xuan.

He smiled meaningfully, "Then why don't we just buy that woman and use her for our own benefit?"

The Queen Mother was just too greedy. She wanted to find a woman from her own family to replace him so that she could have easier control over him.

But she didn't think about it. If King Xuan was the kind of person who fell in love with every woman he met, he wouldn't have repeatedly refused marriage proposals over the years.

The queen also thought it made sense, "But how can we make that woman submit to us?"

After thinking for a while, Xiao Bicheng said, "How about you find an excuse to hold a banquet and invite the concubine to attend?"

Since Prince Xuan liked that girl, but had to keep her away and not bring her back home, there was only one possibility -

The woman was of low status and most likely a prostitute.

If her own mother recognized her as her sister and elevated her status, she would naturally be worthy of Prince Xuan.

When the woman becomes a princess, she will naturally be grateful for their kindness.

And King Xuan would certainly be grateful to them for having brought the beauty home.

The queen laughed and said, "My son, this is a very good idea. I will ask someone to arrange it now!"

…

Outside the palace gate.

"Uncle, I heard that you have a mistress outside?"

As soon as Jiang Yao finished speaking, the air around him seemed to freeze for a moment.

Xiao Jinxuan glanced at him and jumped on his horse, "If you have nothing to do, go to school and study hard, and stop talking nonsense!"

"I am talking nonsense. Didn't you give her the private seal and let her mobilize the Feiyun Guard?"

Jiang Yao pouted aggrievedly as he spoke. He didn't even have the qualifications to transfer the Feiyun Guard.

"Private seal..." Xiao Jinxuan was stunned.

He did give his private seal to Xie Zhuoning.

But what about the mistress?

Seeing his reaction, Jiang Yao was instantly overjoyed, "It seems the rumors are true, little uncle, you really are a man of honor!"

The moment he heard the news, he thought it was fake. After all, with his uncle's temper, it was good enough that he didn't have to live alone for the rest of his life. How could he possibly have a mistress?

He couldn't wait to run to the palace gate and wait, just to verify it as soon as possible.

I didn't expect it to be true!

His uncle has really made great progress. It would have been fine if he had just been having an affair with Miss Xie, but in such a short period of time he even has a mistress.

"Hey, little uncle, when can you bring your sister-in-law out to open our eyes?"

Jiang Yao came over in a frivolous manner and made a look at his uncle.

He was really curious about what kind of extraordinary woman could tame such a stubborn person like his uncle!

He didn't expect to be responded by raised horse hooves and snorting.

"Drive——"

Xiao Jinxuan clamped his legs around the horse's belly and rode away, leaving him with a mouthful of dust.

"Pah, pah, pah!" he complained, "It's just a meeting, how stingy!"

"Wei Zhao." Xiao Jinxuan returned to Prince Xuan's Mansion and immediately called the man to his side.

"Tell me, what's going on?"
