"Royal brother?" Mu Xue looked at him in surprise, with obvious shock on her face, "What are you talking about?"

"Xue'er, what I said is true, I just suddenly realized it last night." Mu Xiuhan's tone was very serious, and his expression did not look like a joke at all, "Since I broke off the engagement with Yan Li, my luck has been getting worse and worse, and my situation has been getting worse day by day-"

"It's all because of that bitch Yan Li!" Mu Xue stood up angrily, "She can be so rebellious and contradict her mother, slap Mu Ya in public, kick Mu Yun into the lake, and even Mu Yunzhu was flogged by Concubine Gu because of Yan Li! Could it be that the royal brother was stimulated because he was abolished as the crown prince?"

"Why are you so loud?" Mu Xiuhan frowned and said unhappily, "Don't you find that everyone who has a bad relationship with Yan Li has bad luck?"

Mu Xue looked at him coldly with a tense face.

"Who was the daughter of the Gu family before? Every woman in the capital city was respected and admired. How much less noble was she than the princess? But since she had a disagreement with Yan Li, she married Mu Wenxuan, that playboy."

"The Prince Yu's Mansion was demoted for offending Yan Li."

"Just now you said that Mu Yunzhu was flogged by Concubine Gu for offending Yan Li. Isn't this what we want? It proves that Yan Li has not been won over by Prime Minister Gu. We still have a chance."

"Xue'er, offended Yan Li's people all have a bad ending. If we follow her path, will bad luck stay away from us? "

Mu Xue's face was cold: "In the end, you are still afraid of her!"

Mu Xiu Han was helpless: "Xue'er, I did this not only for myself, but also for you and my mother. Do you want to watch other emperors ascend to the supreme throne, kill me, and then abuse you and my mother?"

The last sentence pierced Mu Xue's heart fiercely, and her anger was instantly extinguished by a basin of ice water.

Mu Xue's expression changed, but she still said stubbornly: "My mother is the queen of the central palace. No matter which emperor ascends the throne, he dare not abuse her."

Mu Xiu Han sneered: "Do you believe this sentence yourself?"

Mu Xue looked at him coldly, but she knew in her heart that the court was sinister, the concubines in the harem were fighting each other, and the emperors were fighting to the death.

The final winner will only treat those he wants to treat well.

What about the queen?

Without a son to support her, even if she can enjoy two years of wealth and glory at the beginning of the new emperor's accession to the throne, she will eventually be stripped of power until no one cares about her and she dies in the deep palace.

As a legitimate princess, she sounds noble, but once she loses the protection of her mother and brother, her fate will not be much better.

Mu Xue was silent for a long time, and finally sat down slowly, and began to think about Mu Xiuhan's words.

I have to admit that what he said does make some sense.

Gu Anxian, Mu Yunzhu, and Mu Ya all became worse after provoking Yan Li.

Although Princess Mu Yun of Guanxian Palace had conflicts with Yan Li before and was kicked into the lake by her, she did not suffer any serious damage after she stopped associating with Yan Li.

The Gu family has already made a grudge against her. If she can be pulled back...

Thinking of this, Mu Xue couldn't help but think of the grand scene when the Ninth Prince proposed marriage, and she felt jealous and hateful.

Where on earth did Yan Li, that little bitch, get such incredible luck?

Shaking her head to get rid of all the messy thoughts, Mu Xue finally asked, "What does my brother want me to do?"

Seeing her attitude soften, Mu Xiu Han breathed a sigh of relief: "Tell Yan Li that I regret it. As long as she is willing, I will promise her the position of concubine and promise that when I ascend the throne in the future, she will be the queen."

Mu Xue's expression was subtle, and she couldn't help but remind him of a fact: "Brother, you are not the queen now."

"Even if I am not the queen, I am still the queen's legitimate wife." Mu Xiu Han was unhappy, "This is a fact that no one can change! Father only temporarily abolished me, and the throne will be mine sooner or later."

In his excessive excitement, he accidentally pulled the wound on his body, which made him pale and stiff. It took him a while to recover.

Mu Xue looked at him without saying a word.

"As long as Yan Li changes her mind, Father will see my goodness sooner or later." Mu Xiuhan took a breath and lay back on the bed carefully, "Xue'er, we have all seen Father's preference for Yan Li. As long as she is willing to help me, the throne will be mine sooner or later."

Mu Xue seemed to be persuaded by him and hesitated for a moment: "Will Mother agree?"

She knew that Mother hated Yan Li not only because of her background, but also because Yan Li's mother was Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi's reputation is not to be mentioned, but she is the woman Father loves the most. Mother was slapped by Father last time because of Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi is a thorn in Mother's heart, and she should not agree to this.

Mu Xiuhan frowned: "Don't let Mother know for the time being."

Mu Xue looked at him silently, weighing the pros and cons in her heart, and finally the interests prevailed over the face.

"Okay." She nodded, "I will leave the palace now to ask Yan Li."
