Seeing Chen Yin's repeated assurances, the empress reluctantly agreed, "If you can't handle it within three days, I will personally go down and handle it for you."
The empress was quite angry and gave Chen Yin an ultimatum, with veins throbbing on her forehead.
Seeing this, Chen Yin sighed, asked Quan Yue and Shen Qiangwei to leave, and met with the empress alone.
"Queen Mother, let's look at this matter from another angle. It's not an opportunity."
Her voice was calm, without any trace of anger, which made the empress look at her with more respect. It was extraordinary that she could still keep her composure at this time.
"oh?"
Chen Yin smiled, took out the tea set from the space, brewed a cup of tea for the empress, and slowly said: "The Yaoyue Kingdom is using the prince's innocence to make trouble for me. If all this is true, assuming Lu Jinchao really ascends the throne, and I am pregnant again, this child will still be Lu Jinchao's bloodline and have the surname Chen. Is there a chance that I will inherit the Yaoyue Kingdom in the future?"
The empress sat up in shock and looked at Chen Yin in horror. She had never thought about this question before.
My heart is in dire straits.
If it is true, when Lu Jinchao ascends the throne, he has already been marked by Chen Yin, and if he has a child in the future, the Yaoyue Kingdom can complete the great cause of unification without firing a single shot.
This dowry is richer than anything else.
The empress's heart was pounding, and she couldn't help but stand up and pace back and forth in the hall, unable to calm down.
Every emperor has the dream of unification, and the empress is no exception. However, the difficulty is too great, and once a war breaks out, the people will suffer and death is inevitable. With current technology and medicine, fighting is tantamount to the end of the world.
If Chen Yin's words could come true, the empress couldn't imagine how happy she would be.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
After a long time, the empress burst into laughter.
"That idiot Lu Caiwei personally sent her son to my daughter. If she sends the kingdom to me as well, I will die with my eyes closed!"
The empress laughed heartily, and all the depression in her chest was swept away.
Marquis Lu, who was standing aside, was secretly frightened and looked at Chen Yin as if he were a monster.
This perspective is so unique.
After being happy, the empress regained her composure and drank the tea handed to her by Chen Yin.
"That's true, but Lu Jinchao is a male. It's extremely difficult for him to break the shackles of the rules and become the emperor."
It sounds nice to think about, but it is actually very difficult to implement.
Chen Yin knelt on the ground, "Nothing in the world is difficult if you set your mind to it. There's nothing to lose by giving it a try."
Most of the princesses of Yaoyue Kingdom are dead, so what's wrong with the prince ascending the throne?
In the future, when I have a daughter, she will have both surnames. With the development of technology nowadays, it will only take about ten minutes to travel back and forth through the tunnel. In the morning, I can be the empress of Yaoyue Kingdom, and in the afternoon, I can be the empress of Weixing Kingdom, and slowly infiltrate and unify the continent.
Chen Yin now has high hopes for her future daughter who has no shadow yet.
The empress nodded, her eyes full of admiration, and she praised generously, "Good, very good!"
"You are worthy of being my daughter. Get up quickly. Do whatever you want. If it comes true one day, the Queen Mother will be very grateful to you. The future of MSI depends on you. Among all your brothers and sisters, the Queen Mother values you the most. You are the only one who has never let me down."
Chen Yin smiled and nodded excitedly, like a child who had received candy.
Chen Yin had stopped believing the Empress's lies eight hundred years ago.
What is the difference between this and the Ming Dynasty's "The Crown Prince is often ill and you should encourage him"?
Haha, emperors all like to make empty promises. Just listen to them, they will change their minds as quickly as turning the pages of a book.
After coming out of the Peony Hall, Chen Yin was so tired that his head hurt.
I have to use my brain every time I come here, which is more tiring than making potions.
Shen Yin stepped out of the hall, prepared for Shen Qiangwei to be waiting outside to mock her, but she was nowhere to be seen.
That's not like her style.
Just as I was thinking this, I heard a commotion from the front.
“Snap—”
A loud slap was heard.
The sunlight was dazzling. Under the scorching sun, a young man in a black uniform knelt on the ground. He had a slender figure, sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. He looked no more than eighteen or nineteen years old. He clenched his fists and lowered his head to suppress his emotions. The red corners of his eyes and the stubborn expression made people look sideways.
There are very few palace guards as handsome as this one.
“Zhou Yi, you little bastard, you dare to be distracted when you are asked to guard, and you are not qualified to comment on Marquis Shen. What, are you still a fanatical fan of Shen Yin?”
Five tall and strong guards stood in front of him, pointing at his face and yelling at him, and laughter could be heard from them.
"Chen Yin is just a good-for-nothing from the slums. She gained His Majesty's favor by flattering him. Who knows where her potion came from?"
"That's right. She collaborated with the enemy and betrayed her country. She was seduced by the beauty of the Yaoyue Kingdom's prince. Is such a person worthy of being a princess?"
"You admire him so much, but you're not a good person either!"
As he spoke, he slapped the boy again. The boy's fair face became red and swollen, his hair was disheveled, and he lowered his eyebrows, holding back his anger.
There was constant sneer.
The leading male stretched out his foot, his leather boots stained with dust. "Since you like being a licker so much, just lick the dust off my shoes. Lick it! Why don't you lick it anymore?"
His chin was pinched with great force, making a cracking sound.
Even when the boy was kneeling, his back remained straight, preferring to break rather than bend. His temperament made people look up to him.
Chen Yin didn't want to get involved in such trivial matters, but on the road she had to pass, these people were calling her by her full name, and she had no choice but to show up.
A dark look flashed across Chen Yin's eyes, and he stepped forward with a sneer.
As the young man lowered his head, his leather shoes, which were slightly stained with dust, were crushed hard by the high heels.
"ah--"
The sharp heel crushed the guard's toes, leaving him completely defenseless. His face changed and he let out a heart-wrenching cry in an instant.
"Fuck! Where did this dog come from..."
The guard jumped up and down in pain, cursing unconsciously. He glanced at Chen Yin's face and saw his body tremble. The weapon in his hand fell to the ground with a thud. He knelt down hurriedly and picked it up with a trembling voice: "Fourth, Fourth Prince..."
The guards behind him knelt on the ground, no longer showing their arrogance and domineering attitude. They were as well-behaved as a group of primary school students sitting upright.
Zhou Yi slowly raised his head, and through the dazzling light, he saw Chen Yin's elegant face. His lips raised, he looked down at the group of people under his feet with cold eyes.
"You're not patrolling properly during your duty hours. You're just engaging in dog-eat-dog fighting here. Do you want to die?"
"Your Highness! This subordinate deserves death!"
"We made a mistake in speaking, Your Highness, please forgive us!"
The sensible one has already started to slap himself in the face and lie on the ground to apologize.
Chen Yin looked down at him, his eyes calm, except for a hint of disgust and fatigue.
I really don't have time to continue playing with them.
"You, raise your head!"
Chen Yin turned to look at Zhou Yi.
The young man slowly raised his head, his delicate and fair face was more dazzling and warmer than the scorching sun, stunning at first sight.
Chen Yin, who was used to seeing handsome guys, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He vaguely felt a familiar breath, but couldn't put his finger on it for a moment.
