After being reborn in the Mass Grave, she overturned her predecessor's power

After being exposed to the cold wind for half the night, she caught a cold. She felt dizzy and had to wait for two days before she recovered a little.

The weather was fine, and she took the medicine and basked in the sun in the yard. Qinghe came in and reported, "Prince Yu is here to visit."

She glanced at the visiting card and said with a headache, "Let him in."

Bingtong would not let him see her, but Helian Mu had been making private moves recently, so she wanted to meet him.

Helian Mu was brought in quickly. Jiang Xuening leaned back on the chair and said weakly, "Your Majesty, please take a seat."

He sat down and glanced at her, "The princess looks unwell."

Jiang Xue Ning took a sip of hot tea and said, "I am indeed not feeling well, so I am sorry for not treating you well enough. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

She originally thought that he came for Bingtong. The two of them exchanged a few false greetings, but he never mentioned Bingtong at all.

This purpose is worth pondering.

Helian Mu looked at her sideways. She was just a princess, but she dared to confront the empress dowager and kill the people of the Feng family.

He didn't think that such an ambitious woman, who was also the granddaughter of the Gu family, would obediently enter the palace to become the queen.

"Speaking of which, the person I admired most back then was General Gu. It's a pity for the Gu family..."

This was a lie, but the implication of this made her cheer up. She smiled faintly, "If the king wants his subject to die, then the subject has to die."

Helian Mu looked at her with a flicker in his eyes, and it turned out that she hated Helian Xuan.

He smiled brightly, "Let's not beat around the bush. This time I came here to ask the princess to lend me a helping hand."

After all, they had a common enemy, and he thought he could give her what she wanted.

Jiang Xue Ning glanced at him sideways, her eyes sharpening, "Your Highness, are you trying to usurp the throne?"

Helian Mu raised his chin and said ambitiously, "He is of royal blood, and so am I. That position should be occupied by the most capable."

"Oh, Your Majesty is quite open about it. He is not afraid that I will tell on you."

"No, because you want him to die too. Why don't we join forces? That way things will be easier."

Jiang Xue Ning turned the cup in her hand, wondering whether Helian Mu thought too highly of himself or did not understand the situation clearly, to dare to come to her for cooperation.

She lay back down and said lazily, "What good can I get from doing this?"

If he wants someone to work for him, he naturally has to give them some sweet benefits. Helian Mu had already prepared for this and said fluently, "After I ascend to the throne, I will vindicate the Gu family and restore its former glory, and make you the queen!"

He thought that he had given enough, even to an ambitious woman.

"Your Highness is indeed generous." Jiang Xue Ning smiled, seemingly moved, and said, "I wonder what Your Highness wants me to do for you?"

Helian Mu is not really stupid, and the trust between them is still very weak, so he naturally won't easily tell his plan.

He just said, "We will discuss it in detail after the princess becomes the queen."

"can."

Jiang Xue Ning didn't show much enthusiasm either. After all, this was a big deal and she had to weigh the pros and cons.

After talking about the important things, Helian Mu finally thought of Bingtong, "I want to see Bingtong, I wonder if the princess can make it convenient for me."

"This... she has been in seclusion recently, and I can't even see her." She said with embarrassment, "Since we have become allies, there are plenty of opportunities in the future. It's not good to force Bingtong too much."

Helian Mu's eyes flashed with disappointment, but he just had an agreement with her and didn't want to break up, so he smiled and said, "There is really no rush. I'll ask the princess to take good care of Bingtong."

"It should."

Jiang Xue Ning personally escorted him out of the courtyard. He must have been seen by many spies today. But most people would think that he came for Bing Tong, and would never think that he came to win her over.

When she returned to the yard, there were two more chairs. Bingtong and Jiangli were obviously waiting for her.

Bing Tong looked at her with resentment, "There is no time to waste, I just want to kill him right now!"

It seems that they all heard the conversation just now.

Jiang Xue Ning quickly coaxed him, "I'm just fooling him. When the time is right, I'll hand you the knife when you stab him."

Bing Tong snorted coldly, and said with a slightly raised corner of her mouth, "You have a conscience."

Bingtong, who was coaxed, floated away, not interested in their messy affairs.

Jiang Xue Ning drank half a cup of tea and lay back in the chair, saying nonchalantly, "Is Helian Mu's brain okay if he wants to join forces with me?"

Does she look like someone who can handle things well?

"Looking down on women is a pain for many men, let alone someone like him who was born in an imperial family." Jiang Li understood this mentality very well. "Although I think you are not weak, I actually look down on you in my heart and think that I have given you enough."

Jiang Xue Ning rubbed his temple and said, "I didn't expect that the first person to jump out and blatantly covet the throne would be Helian Mu. They are brothers from the same mother. It turns out that family affection is a joke in the royal family."

She thought of the Queen Mother who had made things difficult for her several times. If she knew that her two sons were about to kill each other and become enemies, she didn't know who she would help.

Jiang Li went straight to the point, "Do you think Helian Mu has a chance of winning?"

"Hard to say."

He managed Yan very well, and the army was strong. But Helian Xuan had been the emperor for so many years, and he was not a pushover.

The most important thing is that no one knows what Helian Xuan, who has been keeping his troops idle and allowing the undercurrents in Shengjing to take place, really wants to do.

"Then what are you going to do?"

"Just act according to circumstances and pretend to be nice. It's impossible to join forces anyway." Jiang Xue Ning said calmly.

She doesn't trust Helian Mu, nor does she want to make wedding clothes for others. The final result depends on each person's ability.

After Helian Mu left the house and got on the carriage, his aide Sun Li, who had been following him, asked, "Did she agree?"

"Yes, after all, this king is sincere."

Sun Li stroked his beard and said worriedly, "I still think she is an extremely dangerous person. Your Majesty should not have anything to do with her. This woman is vicious and has a strong purpose."

From the beginning, he didn't approve of Helian Mu's alliance with her. He always felt that this was an extremely dangerous move.

Helian Mu said disapprovingly, "No matter how powerful she is, she is still a woman, and she has no military power, so she can only plot some intrigues."

In the end, who will be the winner will still depend on hard power and the troops in hand.

Sun Li sighed, "After all, she has the blood of the Gu family in her body, and her behavior is quite similar to that of Princess Chen back then. I always feel that she will become a hidden danger."

He always felt that they did not understand the situation in the capital well enough, and did not have a thorough understanding of the Princess of Qingzhou. Helian Mu's decision was too risky.

If someone else had said it so earnestly, he might not be in the mood to listen. Sun Li had been with him all these years in Yandi, so their relationship was different.

He patted Sun Li's shoulder and said, "Don't worry. If I find anything wrong with her, I will get rid of her immediately!"
