The empress is pregnant, and the emperor's incense continues

But when he walked to the harem and saw that it was Meng Wenyao who summoned him, he breathed a sigh of relief again.

"I am here to meet you, the Queen."

Meng Wenyao politely asked Lin Xiuxian to stand up and seriously discuss his marriage with her.

"Commander Lin, I heard that you are still unmarried. The Emperor and I have always cared about it. More than a year ago, when the palace held a banquet, the Emperor and I selected several suitable candidates, all of whom happened to be my former friends. Friends, if it’s suitable, I will arrange for you to meet each other.”

Lin Xiurong didn't expect that Meng Wenyao would talk to him about such an insignificant matter. He blushed and said in a low voice: "Since the emperor and the empress have already agreed, I have no objections."

"Why don't you take a look and pick one yourself?" Meng Wenyao asked curiously.

"No, there shouldn't be much difference between the ones chosen by the empress and the emperor."

After Lin Xiurong finished speaking, Meng Wenyao said a long "oh".

"I understand why Commander Lin doesn't care who you marry? Because you have a beloved girl in your heart, but you can't marry her, so as long as it's not her, it doesn't matter who you marry, right?"

Lin Xiurong's face was quite embarrassed when he was teased. He hesitated and said: "The Queen made fun of you. I have never thought about starting a family before, and I don't care about any girl."

Ignoring Lin Xiurong's explanation, Meng Wenyao continued her conjecture.

"Commander Lin, are you shy? If you tell me who you like, I will definitely make the decision for you."

Seeing Lin Xiurong's face turning red after being teased, Meng Wenyao said in amusement, "Let me think about which girl from this family made Commander Lin so interested in her that he didn't dare to propose marriage to the emperor."

"This girl must have a noble birth. Otherwise, given Commander Lin's status, people would have agreed to it a long time ago. But in this world, who else has a noble birth that Commander Lin can't even ask for?"

"Oh, I know, I am the Princess Protector, right?"

Lin Xiurong was so frightened by Meng Wenyao's conjecture that he almost collapsed to the ground. He quickly denied it: "There is no such thing, please don't make random guesses."

"How can it be something that doesn't exist?"

Meng Wenyao adjusted her tone and said solemnly: "The last time the princess went to my natal family to cause trouble, the emperor asked Commander Lin to escort the princess back. When the emperor wanted to put the princess under house arrest, he also asked Commander Lin to take care of the princess. It must be Lin The commander developed feelings for the princess through repeated interactions with her, and that’s why he was so careless about his marriage. "

Lin Xiurong wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, swallowed several times, and explained again: "Wei Chen has no wrong thoughts about the princess. The empress really has misunderstood."

"How could there be a misunderstanding? Since I planned to be a matchmaker for you, I asked someone to inquire about your life. It just so happened that the person said that you went to the princess's mansion and stayed there for most of the day. It can be seen that you have a close relationship with the princess. If you hadn't What else can it be if you give or receive privately?”

Meng Wenyao looked at Lin Xiurong innocently, and saw Lin Xiurong's flushed face turning pale in an instant.

He immediately knelt down and said everything in one breath.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. It was the princess who called Wei Chen over to find out more about your Majesty and the White Fox. She also said that she would find a way to deal with your Majesty. In order to gain the princess's trust, Wei Chen pretended to agree to the princess's plan."

"Oh~"

Meng Wenyao also calmed down and looked at Lin Xiurong condescendingly.

"I wonder how the princess plans to deal with me?"

Lin Xiurong no longer concealed anything, and said: "On the prince's 100th day, the emperor will go out of the palace to pray for blessings at the Ancestral Temple. The princess will ask the ministers to cooperate with her to open the palace door. She will bring the clan into the palace together, and then say that the empress is an evildoer. In the name of execution, the empress and the prince and princess will never survive as long as the ministers cooperate. "

"When the emperor returns to the palace, everything will be settled, and the decision was made by the clan together. The law does not hold everyone accountable, and the emperor has no way to deal with anyone."

"A good law does not punish everyone. Now that Commander Lin has agreed to the princess's plan, what are you going to do?"

Lin Xiurong took a deep breath and said, "Wei Chen planned to tell the Emperor, but before I could tell the Emperor, I was already called here by the Empress."

Meng Wenyao stared at Lin Xiurong for a long time and asked: "Are you pretending to agree with the princess, or do you really want to follow the trend and get rid of my mother and son."

The deepest secret in her heart was told frankly by Meng Wenyao, and Lin Xiurong kept kowtowing to explain.

"Weichen once doubted the empress, but the empress gave birth to a prince and a princess for the emperor, so that the emperor could have successors. Moreover, when the empress gave birth, the sun shone brightly and the phoenix soared. Weichen no longer had any doubts about the empress."

He just felt that Xie Ningxuan took Meng Wenyao too seriously. Except for the morning court, he was almost inseparable from Meng Wenyao. If this continues, if Meng Wenyao has the idea of ​​​​meddling in the government affairs, she may not be another Princess Protector.

If the Princess Protector could fight to the death with Meng Wenyao this time, as long as she protected the prince, he believed it would have no impact on the court.

It's a pity that Meng Wenyao noticed this in advance. It was impossible for him to reap the benefits at this time.

"Weichen knows that the princess has always been afraid of the empress. If the princess can't succeed in this matter, she will come up with other ways to frame the empress in the future. That's why Weichen thought of using the trick without any disrespect to the empress."

Meng Wenyao glanced at Lin Xiurong lightly and said with a chuckle: "Commander Lin is really far-sighted and I admire him."

"But what you said makes sense. The princess has always wanted to get rid of me and the prince. As long as I and the prince are not harmed, the emperor will definitely turn the big thing into a trivial matter. If you tell the emperor now, the emperor will I will definitely pick it up and put it down gently.”

"I'm thinking that I won't tell the emperor this time. When the time comes to offer sacrifices to the Imperial Ancestral Temple, even though the emperor is not in the palace, as long as Commander Lin is protecting my mother and son, I believe that the princess will not succeed."

Lin Xiurong looked at Meng Wenyao dumbfounded and asked uncertainly: "Won't you tell the emperor?"

"Yes, after telling the emperor, the princess just received a scolding once, and there will be another time. If you don't tell the emperor, and let the princess come in with the clan and force me to death, when the emperor finds out, he will definitely be severely punished Princess, and with Commander Lin protecting me, I believe that I will not be harmed."

"Commander Lin will not let me down."

Lin Xiurong met Meng Wenyao's eyes, moved away for a moment, and said anxiously: "Wei Chen received the order."

Seeing Lin Xiurong's reaction, Meng Wenyao sighed slightly.

Lin Xiurong is Xie Ningxuan's confidant. He must know the position of Meng Wenyao, mother and son in Xie Ningxuan's heart. If it is really for Xie Ningxuan's good, he will definitely not be willing to take risks with Meng Wenyao, mother and son.
