Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain
Chapter 243: Monopoly
Having experienced her past life, Jiang Xue knew very well how obsessed Emperor Beiling was with the dragon throne!
After all, his throne was not obtained in a glorious way, so he would be wary of anyone who coveted the throne, even his own son! Otherwise, why would he allow Xiao Li and Xiao Yan to coexist? He wanted them to fight and restrain each other, so that his throne could be more stable.
Now that Xiao Yan has fallen, the Emperor of Beiling will definitely not let Xiao Li dominate alone! He will definitely support another force to compete with him.
And this is one of the key reasons why she and Xiao Zhan entered the palace today.
It turned out to be just as Jiang Xue expected.
After the Queen and Xiao Li made this suggestion, Emperor Beiling's eyes immediately became deep.
He nodded and followed their words: "Prince Li is right, the candidates for these positions should indeed be decided."
After he finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Xiao Zhan who was beside the Queen Mother: "Yun Che, do you have a suitable candidate?"
Except for Jiang Xue, everyone else was shocked as if they were struck by lightning!
What Emperor Beiling said clearly means that Prince Gong is to take power?
Xiao Li's face instantly became extremely ugly!
He mentioned this matter not to benefit Xiao Zhan!
The queen was also surprised. She originally thought that after Xiao Yan's downfall, Tingchuan would become the only candidate for the crown prince!
All the benefits should be tilted towards them! Why would the emperor favor Prince Gong who has never been favored?
"Father..." Xiao Li wanted to speak to attract the attention of Emperor Beiling, but was unfortunately ignored.
“Yun Che, if you have any candidates, please make a list tomorrow. I want to take a good look at it.”
This is open support for Xiao Zhan to build up his power!
Xiao Zhan bowed his head respectfully: "Yes, Father."
On the way back, Jiang Xue kept staring at Xiao Zhan.
He was a little amused and said, "Xiaoxue, why are you staring at me like that?"
"Today Xiao Li and the Queen are in a hurry to propose a candidate. Are you doing something behind the scenes?"
The more he thought about it, the more something seemed wrong. From Xiao Li's untimely proposal to Emperor Beiling's support for Xiao Zhan, everything went strangely smoothly.
The Queen and Xiao Li are both smart people. How could they not know the timing and choose the wrong occasion?
Xiao Zhan smiled slightly: "Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from Xiaoxue's eyes."
Yes, he did play some tricks.
A few days ago, Linglong Pavilion sent a message that the Su family had gained a large number of forces to join them because of the downfall of the Lin family.
This made Emperor Beiling a little nervous. He was worried that Xiao Li's power was too great and given his personality, he might even have thoughts of usurping the throne.
So Xiao Zhan deliberately let the spies in the palace spread Xiao Li's ambition to become the crown prince, and at the same time let Emperor Beiling notice his rise.
This planted a seed of vigilance in Emperor Beiling's heart.
While he was on guard against Xiao Li, he also began to support new forces to compete with him, returning to the situation of two tigers fighting and checking each other!
As for why Xiao Li and the Queen chose to bring up this matter today, it was of course because they saw that Xiao Zhan's power was growing day by day and the pressure was enormous, so they were eager to take the initiative and seize power!
But they didn't know that it was their desire for power that activated the seeds in Emperor Beiling's heart, paving the way for Xiao Zhan in advance.
"They are really a perfect father and son. It was only because they were equally obsessed with power that I was able to get the upper hand."
Xiao Zhan smiled contemptuously, then held Jiang Xue's hand tightly and said to her seriously: "Xiaoxue, our revenge is about to begin."
The next day, Xiao Zhan prepared a list of appointments and went to court early in the morning.
Jiang Xue slept until the morning before getting up. After washing and changing clothes, she went to Mo Tian's room to help him change the medicine.
"The wound heals very quickly. It will probably form a scab in a few days."
Jiang Xue carefully removed the bleeding gauze and carefully checked the recovery of the wound.
"Thank you for your concern, Princess." Mo Tian wanted to get up, but was held down by Jiang Xue.
"Mo Tian, after your injury is healed, I will find a way to help you return to Qian Country." She applied the ointment on a clean gauze and gently applied it to him.
Mo Tian looked at her in confusion: "Why did the princess suddenly ask me to return to Qian Kingdom?"
Could it be that the princess was disappointed in him because of this arrest?
"Yun Che said that Liu Changsheng told Xiao Yan about the destruction of the base, and Xiao Yan has already gone to the secret room."
Mo Tian's heart sank: "That secret room..."
"Don't worry, we found a death row inmate and disguised him to look like you. We pretended that you bit your tongue and committed suicide, so you escaped. But this also means that you can no longer stay in Yujing, otherwise it will be troublesome if you are recognized by the people at the wedding banquet."
Jiang Xue explained.
"I have already sent a letter to Qianguo. I believe that Prajna and Nangongyue have received the news by now. Once you return, they will pick you up. Remember, you must protect your life and tell me any news about Feng Qiyuan intactly."
Although Yu Prajna and Nangong Yue are very powerful, they may not be able to obtain the internal information of Qian Kingdom.
Mo Tian was born and raised in Qian Kingdom. He knows the secret passages and connections in the palace very well, so he is the most suitable person to go.
"I will definitely live up to the princess's expectations." After this failure, the princess not only did not blame him, but gave him an important task again. This made Mo Tian grateful and he vowed not to let her trust down this time!
"Princess, the fifth princess and the fifth prince consort are here."
As soon as I returned to the room, Fu Dong came to report.
Her brows furrowed slightly, Xiao Min and Jun Li?
Coming at this time must mean no good.
"Princess, why don't you let Fudong send them away?"
It must be no good that His Highness came just after he entered the palace and when the princess was alone.
"Everyone is here, let them in."
Patting Fudong gently to comfort him. If he didn't see her now that she had come to him, rumors would spread that His Royal Highness Prince Gong was arrogant because of his favor.
"Understood." Fu Dong took the order and led his men into the palace.
"Sister Changle, long time no see."
Jiang Xue dressed up simply and went to the front hall with two maids.
As soon as Xiao Min saw her, she deliberately hugged Jun Li's arms tighter, fearing that Jiang Xue couldn't see how close she and Jun Li were.
Jun Li took a deep breath, suppressed his nausea, and did not shake off Xiao Min's hand.
Ever since Jiang Xue appeared, his eyes have never left her.
She became more beautiful.
Wearing a simple and elegant dress, she looked like a fairy who had descended to the mortal world.
Her every move touched his heart.
It really proves the old saying that what you can't get is always the best.
Ever since she and Xiao Zhan became a family, his concern for her and his desire to hold her tightly in his hands have been growing like weeds, almost suffocating him!
Looking back, she always followed him happily, but he didn't feel that way at that time! Maybe it was because he was too arrogant and thought that Jiang Xue would never leave him no matter what.
"Fifth Princess, Fifth Prince Consort."
Jiang Xue nodded slightly, just to say hello. She didn't even look at Jun Li the whole time.
