Chapter 699: The Vicious Crown Princess and the Sickly and Delicate Crown Prince 28

The Queen narrowed her eyes as if smiling, and said calmly: "Your Majesty, then I would like to thank Your Majesty for the wine."

Everyone knows that the emperor is hypocritical.

But no one exposed it.

Not even the Queen.

Meng Qingning gradually shifted her gaze away, and then looked at Li Yuanzhi and the others. She sat there quietly, worthy of being reborn, her demeanor was not the same as before.

Li Lingsu drank fruit wine while looking in the direction of the two princes. His purpose was self-evident.

"I want to fly up to the tree and become a phoenix."

"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about?" Wei Yueyao asked.

Meng Qingning said calmly: "Look carefully at Li Lingsu. She has been staring at the fifth prince. It is obvious that she wants to become the princess."

"Why is it the fifth prince?" Wei Yueyao was a little surprised.

"In her opinion, the one who has the best chance of becoming emperor is Prince Xian, and Prince Xian has not married yet. If she marries him, she will be the princess, not a concubine."

Once the throne is inherited, the wife will naturally become the queen.

This was exactly what Li Lingsu was thinking.

As for her, the Crown Princess, as long as the Crown Prince is not awake, she will never have the chance to become the Queen.

"Sister-in-law, you are so smart." Wei Yueyao sighed, "I never realized that she had such thoughts before. I only knew that she was very good to me, and my brother..."

"My brother must have been deceived by her before, otherwise how could he have been childhood sweethearts with her?"

At this point, Wei Yueyao quickly shut up again, thinking that she had said something wrong, and explained: "Sister-in-law, don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong between my brother and Li Lingsu, they just grew up together, there is nothing else."

The more you describe, the darker.

Fortunately, Meng Qingning didn't care. She didn't care about Li Lingsu. As for Wei Qian, he was a gentleman who followed the rules and loved the people, so he would not do anything out of line.

Li Lingsu believed that she was of noble status and would definitely not get pregnant.

So the two of them definitely didn't have any physical contact.

Even if there was, there would never be a chance for contact again in the future, so she wouldn't be jealous of it.

"Yaoyao, who do you think the emperor will choose to be the Princess of Liang or the Princess of Xian?"

Wei Yueyao pursed her lips and asked in confusion: "Among the women present, Li Lingsu is the most respected, and Li Yuanzhi has just returned after all. Even if she is named the Princess of Le'an County, my father knows that she is not favored."

"The next best option is the Prime Minister's daughter. However, the Prime Minister only has this one daughter and he treasures her very much. He once said that he didn't want his daughter to have anything to do with the royal family. Father knows this."

"Besides that, there's my cousin." The cousin Wei Yueyao was referring to was the Queen's niece.

Lin Fangfei.

In her previous life, she seemed to have married King Xian Wei Xian, but Meng Qingning didn't pay much attention to it, and she wasn't very clear about how she lived later.

"The other one is the daughter of a merchant."

"They are from a noble family, and are very respected in the eyes of scholars. If they can become the prince's consort, they will definitely be a help to that prince."

Although Wei Yueyao is naive, she can still see clearly about this matter.

Meng Qingning said calmly: "You are right. The daughter of a merchant is indeed an excellent choice. Prince Liang has also chosen her in his heart. However, it is impossible for my father to give her to him so easily."

In the previous life, the emperor did not give the person to King Liang.

He was afraid that if he supported another prince who was the same as the crown prince, his position would be affected.

When it comes to shrewdness and foresight, no one can compare to the current emperor.

"But the one that King Liang likes is not Li Lingsu?"

Meng Qingning smiled and said, "I like her, but compared to her status, there is still a gap. Moreover, Li Lingsu is not really the daughter of the Grand Tutor now, so he needs to consider it."

When she was the daughter of the Grand Tutor, Li Lingsu was the best choice.

After all, if he married her, he would get support from both the Li family and the merchants, but now, the merchants might not care, so -

With Wei Yuan's personality, even if he liked Li Lingsu, he would still consider it.

Just like in his previous life, in order to gain the support of the Meng family, he would pretend to be nice to her and Li Yuanzhi, and only after he ascended the throne did he bring Li Lingsu back to be the queen.

Wei Yueyao was silent for a while, then said meaningfully: "Sister-in-law, do you think Lin Fangfei has a chance to become one of their princesses?"

“There are opportunities, but not many.”

After all, they are the queen's maternal family. Those princes will definitely not have anything to do with the queen. Everyone will be wary of them!

As expected, after everyone finished their performance.

The emperor looked at the queen and said, "Queen, which daughter do you think can take the top spot?"

The Queen also knew what the Emperor was thinking, and said with a smile, "They all came to congratulate me, so they all have their own merits. It is difficult for me to judge. But Your Majesty, do you have a favorite candidate?"

The emperor narrowed his eyes and said calmly: "That's what you said."

After saying that, he looked at Li Lingsu, Li Yuanzhi, and Lin Fangfei.

"These three are the most outstanding, and each of them will be awarded a jade ruyi."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

The three of them knelt down to express their gratitude.

The emperor looked at Wei Yuan at this time and said, "Prince Liang, you are already quite old. Do you have a girl you like? I can grant you a marriage."

"Father, I am not in a hurry." Wei Yuan said sincerely, "The Crown Prince has not woken up yet. I don't have the heart to worry about this. I just hope that the Crown Prince can wake up soon."

The emperor frowned and said, "We are having a good time. Don't ruin the atmosphere. Whether the prince can wake up depends on God's will."

Hearing this, the queen glanced at the emperor vaguely.

I just felt like someone had stabbed a thorn in my heart.

Is this the man she has been sleeping with for so many years?

She actually just saw his true face now. He just mentioned the prince to ruin the atmosphere. As for this will of heaven, it was not God's will.

But it is the intention of this emperor.

After all, the Queen had not been in charge of the harem for so many years in vain, so she could still understand this meaning.

However, she pretended not to know and showed a sad expression: "Prince Liang, the emperor is right. The prince is seriously ill and may never wake up again. You don't have to waste your time on him. Besides, your marriage can bring some happiness to the prince. Who knows, the prince may wake up."

Wei Yuan clenched his fingers. He really didn't want to choose a woman in the hall.

If he is rejected, he will be the one to lose.

"Prince Liang, have you thought it through?"

Wei Yuan raised his eyes and asked, "Father, Mother, do I have to make a choice today?"

"Not really. If you don't choose, I will let King Xian go first. Opportunities don't wait for anyone. If you don't try hard, who knows if you can succeed?"

When everyone heard the emperor's slightly meaningful words, they all looked at each other.

The ministers in particular were whispering, "What do you think the emperor means by this? Why is he so patient with King Liang? Could it be that..."

Someone whispered, "It's obvious enough. The emperor wants to change the crown prince, and the candidate is between Prince Xian and Prince Liang. It all depends on how these two perform."
