Poisonous Consort: Prince, Don’t Flirt - Chapter 198
The first condition was still within reason.
The second condition was that Gu Mingyan couldn’t help but laugh, and she even laughed lightly in front of the emperor.
Bai Yu, who was left behind, almost knelt down and kowtowed to Gu Mingyan.
The Emperor wasn’t angry, but he looked at her strangely.
Gu Mingyan quickly stopped laughing, but instead, he relaxed.
“I can fulfill the first condition, but the engagement is a matter between the two of them. If Your Highness agrees to cancel the engagement, then in the future, Ming Yan will not pester you any further.” The second condition is that the Emperor may change one of them. ”
“Why?”
The Emperor frowned. Could it be that she didn’t want to agree to either condition?
“I have never given advice to my father. I only told him because of my brother’s future. In addition, my daughter dares to guess the holy will. ” Gu Mingyan slightly paused, seeing the emperor’s indifferent expression, she continued: “Today, not only did the emperor not ask how father knew about the secret decree, he even asked about it. In my daughter’s eyes, it’s not helping others get the upper hand, but hoping that someone would show up when they are pleased, and that it would be a good show in the future when they rise above others …”
Bai Yu, who was at the side, was startled, and quickly stepped forward to remind Gu Mingyan not to speak carelessly.
The Emperor merely laughed in a low voice and glanced at her. “You’re too smart.”
“Today’s words are only because Your Majesty’s Divine Vision can see through my little thoughts of protecting National Duke’s Mansion. “Therefore, speaking frankly is not a threat. I only hope that when the Emperor makes his second condition, my daughter’s wish can be fulfilled.”
This time, Gu Mingyan calmly kneeled down, raised his head, and waited for the answer.
“If the first condition succeeds, then Your Highness and I are both willing to cancel the engagement and request that Your Majesty not marry anyone else for my daughter. Not because my daughter is infatuated with another person, but because my daughter has revealed her true appearance today.
For Xiao Qiran, the Emperor could disregard her life and even the Prime Minister’s face.
How could she manage to hold on to her position?
She also wanted to take a gamble.
As long as Xiao Qiran was serious and was willing to cancel the engagement, she would not pester him anymore.
If Xiao Qiran was not willing to cancel the marriage, she might… they could consider again whether or not they would have to leave the Shengan in the future.
“I promise you.”
The emperor felt a chill crawl up his spine.
He was already in his middle years, so he could be considered to be knowledgeable about people. However, this little girl was still young, yet she was still able to explain everything about him. She didn’t beat around the bush in front of the emperor, and she didn’t hide her abilities either.
Such a woman would not be at ease no matter who she slept by her pillow.
“Then please state your second condition, Your Majesty.” Gu Mingyan smiled in relief.
“Since you were the one who brought the medicine from before, I shall leave this matter to you to settle.” The Emperor raised his eyebrows. When he asked her to get up, he asked again, “There’s a lot of controversy surrounding the infirmary. What do you think?”
When he talked about personal matters and proper affairs, Gu Mingyan actually became a bit more at ease.
“There are rivers of blood on the battlefield, but there are also many who die from illness every day. Since the Emperor is unwilling to cripple his martial arts, he should naturally place importance on the art of poison. If he does not care about all of this, then wouldn’t it mean that some small tribes are skilled in using poison as a Gu technique, and there is no one in Heaven who can contend against him … ”
The king calmed down from his earlier anger.
Seeing that the emperor and Gu Mingyan were happily chatting, while Gu Mingyan spoke frankly, he did not have any excessive words to say, allowing Bai Yu to relax, he simply ordered someone to send him dinner, which he used in the royal study.
And the Emperor spoke to her in private this time.
Furthermore, she did not seem to be someone who had lived in the mountains for a long time and did not know the seriousness of the overall situation. When she mentioned Xiao Qiran just now, she did not seem to be able to tell that she had a deep affection for him, but rather that each word was reasonable.
When she had finished her dinner, she ordered the other eunuchs to escort her to the empress’s place.
The emperor spoke in a deep voice, “Bai Chao.”
“Your servant is here.” Bai Yu hurriedly went up to welcome him.
“Such an intelligent person is suitable for the Crown Prince.” The Emperor spoke slowly.
Bai Yu couldn’t figure out the Emperor’s personality, but he heard the conversation between the two. He said carefully, “Your Highness loves to be pretty. Eldest Miss is indeed suitable for you, but …”
The Emperor glanced at him and gestured impatiently for him to continue.
“But this servant has heard that young miss wrote down all the poisons on the body. Presumably, she has some attainments in the field of poison, and since the Seventh Prince’s legs are injured, she might as well let the young miss inspect them carefully. Even if the future emperor doesn’t like her marrying the Seventh Prince’s highness, she can still use them wisely.” At this point, Bai Yu laughed out loud. “The Emperor is the emperor of this world. As your subjects, it’s reasonable for Eldest Miss to help you solve your troubles!”
He didn’t forget to flatter her even here.
The Emperor smiled calmly, as he had other thoughts in his mind.
Wasn’t this girl blaming him for secretly taking care of her life?
On the other hand, after leaving the imperial flower garden, Gu Mingyan was completely relieved. In her eyes, with the emperor’s looks and temperament, he could be considered to be a thorny rose.
Since the emperor already knew of her thoughts, accompanying Jun Ruohuan was like accompanying a tiger.
If she were to participate in these matters again in the future, perhaps the Emperor would be able to see through it. In this way, he wouldn’t be able to take part in these matters in the future.
Moreover, with Xiao Qiran as his backer, it was better to work for the Emperor.
If she could get the Emperor’s trust, she could naturally help Xiao Qiran a little.
After her train of thoughts flew far away, she followed them to the queen’s palace. She looked at the grandeur of the room. In this early spring season, the courtyard was already filled with a myriad of flowers.
Previously, at the Winter Palace banquet, he had the honor of meeting the empress once, and knew that the empress was also a gorgeous beauty.
I heard that the Queen’s Madam Liu followed the Emperor into the palace and became the main wife. Now that she has climbed to the position of Empress, she has to behave herself and take care of this messy harem in a neat and orderly manner.
When she entered the hall today to pay her respects, she only saw the empress looking at her lazily and suddenly smile.
“For a good piece of skin like yours to become the main wife of a crippled prince in the future, it would be a bit of a waste for you.”
“Many thanks to the empress for her praise, but Ta Yan knows her identity.” Gu Mingyan hurriedly said in a small voice, as he sized up the deep smile on the empress’s face. He then softly said, “I wonder why the empress called Ming Yan into the palace today?”
“I merely wanted to see how a person like him would be able to defeat Zi Yan.”
The Queen slowly stood up and walked to Gu Mingyan in an extremely flirtatious manner, gently raising her chin.
“You have an extremely good face. I just don’t know which one of you is smart and which one of you is stupid.”
