Adore Trick of Beauty

Chapter 204: Loyalty Is Offended

There was a lot of discussion about this matter in the court. A group of officials selected by Xiao Fengming after the autumn hunt were dismissed one after another. For a while, he could only choose a few more people to recommend. Empress Dowager Gao remained calm and composed even in the midst of this storm. People were surprised but had to admire her for being able to keep her composure.

Nie Wushuang looked on with cold eyes. One day, when Yang Zhi came into the palace, she asked: How did you do with the information I asked you to find out a few days ago?

Yang Zhi looked around and saw that there was no one around, then he took out a piece of paper from his arms, with a solemn look on his face: Your Majesty, just burn it after reading it.

Nie Wushuang glanced at it, her beautiful eyes opening wider and wider. After reading it, she raised her head with a complicated expression: Your Highness really did it.

Yang Zhi nodded: Yes, this is also the result of the imperial concubine. If it weren't for the imperial concubine's plan, His Highness would not have been able to accomplish it so quickly.

Nie Wushuang held the note in her hand and felt very complicated: This was the list she asked Yang Zhi to inquire about the appointment and removal of Xiao Fengming officials. It was not much different from the list Xiao Fengqing had given her before. Basically, it could be said that Xiao Fengqing had already obtained the appointment and removal list. Get your wish!

She just stole Xiao Fengming's autumn election roster for him and gave him an idea. In less than two months, he calmly arranged it. This scheming plan simply surprised her.

Nie Wushuang thought silently for a while, burned the roster in his hand with a charcoal pot, and then said calmly: Where will His Highness Prince Rui be tomorrow?...

Yang Zhi was slightly surprised. Nie Wushuang rarely took the initiative to go to Xiao Fengqing, and usually communicated secretly with him.

Empress, this... Yang Zhi was embarrassed.

Nie Wushuang watched the fire in the charcoal basin gradually extinguish, and then he raised his head with a smile but not a smile: What? Is it too much for me to go to congratulate His Highness Prince Rui for getting what he wanted?

Yang Zhi didn't dare to say anything anymore and quickly retreated.

The next day, the weather was fine, the sun was shining, and the weather was getting warmer. Nie Wushuang looked at the snow on the green tiles that had not yet melted, stamped his feet, ordered Xia Lan to add an extra piece of clothing, and then put on the palace's special wooden clogs. Walk out of Yonghua Palace.

Empress, where are you going to take a break? Xia Lan asked.

Nie Wushuang looked up at the sky and smiled slightly: Shanglin Garden.

The group of people walked slowly. The snow had just melted and the road was slippery. With Xia Lan Mingqiu's support, Nie Wushuang walked tremblingly.

Mother, why don't you go back? It would be bad if you fall in this snowy day. Xia Lan advised. Nie Wushuang shook his head: If you are afraid of wrestling, how can you see the snowy scenery of Shanglin Garden?

Seeing her persistence, Xia Lan couldn't persuade her any more, so she could only help her walk slowly. After finally arriving at Shanglin Garden, as expected, everything was covered with white snow, and a thick layer of ice formed on the lotus pond in summer. There are even more layers of white snow hanging in the woods, and they are covered in silver, which is particularly beautiful.

Nie Wushuang took a deep breath of the cold air in Shanglin Garden and then truly slowly enjoyed the scenery. After walking for a while, I suddenly saw a group of guards riding horses in the distance, talking and laughing.

Nie Wushuang narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, and when the guards came forward, she saw clearly that the person in front was Xiao Fengqing. When Xiao Fengqing saw it was her, she was startled for a moment, then smiled, dismounted from her horse, and walked quickly towards her. He walked very fast, and the surroundings were white, but his skin seemed to be fairer and more delicate than the snow. His hair is like a raven and his eyebrows are like a painting.

I send my regards to Empress Bi. He walked about three feet in front of her, paused, and then said his regards with a playful smile.

Nie Wushuang looked at the guards behind him who had some wild pheasants tied in their hands, and said with a smile: His Royal Highness Prince Rui is so elegant that he hunts in Shanglin Garden without fear of punishment from the emperor.

Xiao Fengqing's strange-colored eyes stared at her beautiful face, and she smiled: I was in a panic in the house, so I just brought a group of good players to try my luck, and I really caught a lot.

Nie Wushuang said with a half-smile: Why is there nothing in His Highness's residence? He is still thinking about these little things in Shanglin Garden.

After she finished speaking, she slowly walked toward the pavilion not far away, supported by Xia Lan. Xiao Fengqing looked at her slender back and waved her hand: You go back first, clean up well, and go to my palace to drink together in the evening!

The guards were all Lang Weijun who were not on duty today. They were all young and powerful, and they were at the age where they liked to hang out with friends. When they heard what Xiao Fengqing said, they all applauded and left in a rush.

Xiao Fengqing watched Nie Wushuang sitting in the pavilion, looking at the scenery leisurely, and walked to the pavilion with a chuckle.

Speaking of which, what do you want to see me for today? Xiao Fengqing leaned on the chair brought by the chamberlain, took a sip of hot tea, and said with a smile.

Nie Wushuang glanced at him, dismissed the palace guests, and then looked at him faintly: Wushuang is here today just to congratulate His Highness for getting what he wished for.

After hearing this, Xiao Fengqing thought for a while and suddenly chuckled: This is also your credit. I just followed the plan.

Nie Wushuang smiled coldly after hearing this: No matter how good the plan is, it still needs a layout to be able to act according to the plan. What surprised Your Highness Wushuang was that in less than two months, His Highness actually deployed his own people step by step.

Of course, if you defeat the main leader, you can have room to intervene in the selection of the successor. This is like the emperor's first choice of one, and now it has become a choice of two. A sinister smile flashed across Xiao Fengqing's eyes. : And if both of the optional two people are replaced by my king, then everything will be foolproof.

Nie Wushuang suddenly sneered: Your Highness is indeed clever. Wushuang's original plan was not like this, but since Your Highness's goal has been achieved, can you please give Wushuang some advice?

What advice? Xiao Fengqing smiled nonchalantly: You won't be like some boring people who advise me not to delay.

For pleasure, go astray, right?

No. Nie Wushuang shook his head: To this day, Wushuang advises His Highness: stop at the right time. Your Highness has already gained a lot, why take more risks?

Xiao Fengqing gradually put away the cynical smile on her face, and her sharp eyebrows gradually became cold and stern, full of sinisterness. Anyone who looked at such a sharp look would feel chilled in their heart, but Nie Wushuang stepped forward to meet him, stared at him without blinking, and continued: Stop it. Your Highness now has the emperor's trust, and it is no longer the same as before. An idle prince with no real power. The Emperor is no longer a puppet controlled by the Queen Mother. Now that the Emperor has repeatedly implemented benevolent policies and has clear politics, His Highness has very few opportunities to seize the country. Your Highness——

She suddenly stopped talking. Xiao Fengqing opposite her was so silent that she felt scared.

Have you finished speaking? Xiao Fengqing suddenly asked: Every word of this long sermon is for my own good, but why do I listen to it? I just feel that you just want me not to take away your current life. A stable and wealthy life, isn’t it?”

His smile was extremely charming, and his thin lips were slightly hooked. For a moment, the snow in his eyes was not as beautiful as his smile: Nie Wushuang, you are too naive. Or are you pretending to be naive?

He gradually approached her: Are you attracted to him?

Nie Wushuang gradually broke out in thin cold sweat on her forehead. She said angrily with a strong voice: Wushuang wholeheartedly advises His Highness, but he just doesn't want His Highness to go on a road of no return. You have no chance of winning, Xiao Fengqing!

At the last sentence, she put aside everything and shouted, her beautiful eyes sparkling with water, and repeated: You have no chance of winning. Don't you still understand what kind of person the emperor is? You can go to Qi to steal border defense for him Tu, you can eradicate dissidents for the emperor and win his trust, you can even install your own people, but what can you think of, can't he count it? He is just tolerating it!

Xiao Fengqing grabbed her hand suddenly, veins popped up on her forehead, and there was already deep anger in her strange-colored eyes: Did you tell him?

No! I didn't! Nie Wushuang shook off his hand and said harshly: I didn't! You clearly know that my revenge has not been avenged, how could I tell him and cut off my own life!

The hatred in her beautiful eyes was so deep. His insult before entering the palace, his obedience late at night after entering the palace, and his suspicion during the autumn hunting. Scenes passed before her eyes, and she could hardly contain her hatred: Xiao Fengqing, you tied me to your boat, don't you think you can trust me enough?

Then why do you say he is forbearing? Xiao Fengqing's face was ashen.

That's because he is enduring for the sake of the people! He is enduring for the foundation of the entire country! The emperor is now bent on eradicating the power of Empress Dowager Gao, and your highness is his sword! And a cautious person like the emperor will definitely use the sword for himself Put the scabbard on the sword. Even if His Highness really wants to rebel, he won't be able to do anything wrong!

After Nie Wushuang finished speaking, he asked again and again: Your Highness, do you know what is the biggest difference between Your Highness and the Emperor?

Where? Xiao Fengqing asked with a cold face.

Heart! Nie Wu's eyes flashed with sadness that he could not detect: The emperor's heart is tolerant and broad. He is a born emperor!

Xiao Fengqing stared at her for a while, then suddenly burst into laughter. The palace people standing far away turned around in surprise, but they couldn't clearly see the expression on his face.

Heart? Xiao Fengqing laughed until tears rolled out of his eyes. He smiled and said, Heart? Do you mean that my heart is selfish and I am not a born emperor?

He suddenly stopped laughing, approached Nie Wushuang, and said with a half-smile: You are like them, thinking that I am not born to be the emperor. This is what I, Xiao Fengqing, hate the most in my life! Nie Wushuang will one day become the king. When you step onto the throne of the Nine-Five Lord, I want you to witness all this!

After he finished speaking, he turned around coldly, his long sleeves rolled up, and soon disappeared on the long path of Shanglin Garden.
