Chapter 74: Concubine is always pregnant (10)

Everyone stayed in the queen's palace for a while, and then said goodbye and left one after another.

Seeing that Lu Changqing had been sitting there steadily, with no intention of leaving, Cao Ruqiong asked, "Does the Imperial Concubine have anything else to discuss with me?"

Lu Changqing put down the teacup in his hand and said bluntly: "I wonder if there is a quiet place here, Your Majesty. I have something to talk to you alone."

Cao Ruqiong looked at Song Yun beside him and said, "If the imperial concubine has anything to say, just speak directly."

Lu Changqing raised his eyebrows and glanced at the palace servants in the room, "Are you sure?"

Cao Ruqiong nodded to Song Yun, and then asked her to leave with the palace maids.

Lu Changqing looked at Xihe who had been standing next to her and said, "You go out too."

Xi He looked embarrassed, "I'd better stay and serve the imperial concubine."

Lu Changqing's voice turned cold, "Get out, don't make me say it for the third time."

Xihe pursed her lips, bowed reluctantly to Lu Changqing, and left the hall.

Song Yun closed the palace door himself, and the light in the room suddenly dimmed.

"There's no one here now, so just say whatever you want to say."

Lu Changqing raised his index finger to his lips, pointed outside, and whispered, "Be careful, there are ears on the other side of the wall."

Lu Changqing picked up a chair and sat next to the queen, and asked, "What do you think of Qi Yu now?"

Cao Ruqiong's face changed, "Your Majesty's name is not something we can address directly."

Lu Changqing shrugged and asked, "If you were the emperor, what would you do when faced with the Cao and Yan families, who are at their peak?"

Cao Ruqiong shrank back slightly, subconsciously grasping the remaining silk and said, "My lord concubine, the harem is not allowed to discuss state affairs without permission, don't you remember?"

"If I were the emperor, I would definitely find a way to get rid of the Cao family and the Yan family. What about the queen?"

Cao Ruqiong narrowed her eyes, "My lord, what do you want to say?"

"Your Majesty, you also know that my father and Prime Minister Cao have different political views. But it is not enough to just have different political views. They must fight and kill each other until both sides suffer losses. Only in this way can our emperor reap the benefits. But how can we make the Yan Party and the Cao Party fight each other?" Lu Changqing asked Cao Ruqiong with his head tilted.

Yan Weixiu, whose mind is full of men, actually starts to care about court affairs?

Cao Ruqiong frowned slightly. The Yan Weixiu in front of her gave her a great sense of incongruity. Could it be that he was really mad about Qiao Luoluo's pregnancy?

Lu Changqing pointed at himself and then at Cao Ruqiong, "You and I are the living targets that the emperor set up in the harem. He married you as the queen but deliberately ignored you, and made me the imperial concubine but deliberately favored me alone, just to make you and me fight."

"My arrogance, my domineering, my indulgence and my willfulness are all caused by him on purpose. He wants me to make enemies in the harem and make sure no one is trustworthy in the harem. This way, I can only love him wholeheartedly."

"He did it. I am now surrounded by enemies in the harem. Everyone in the harem wants me to die."

Cao Ruqiong looked at Lu Changqing in shock, "How do you know this?"

Lu Changqing smiled bitterly, "I have to thank Qiao Luoluo for this. If it weren't for her stunning dance in the Imperial Garden a few days ago, I probably wouldn't have realized that Qi Yu didn't love me at all until I died."

"I'm curious what he did to make you feel so deeply?"

"I have loved Qi Yu for so many years, so I naturally know how it is to look at someone when you love him. The way Qi Yu looked at Qiao Luoluo was just like the way I looked at Qi Yu, lingering and affectionate. It was not until that moment that I realized that exclusive love and love were all bullshit, and he had been lying to me all along."

"So you have suddenly attained enlightenment?" Cao Ruqiong's tone was somewhat sarcastic. She didn't believe what Lu Changqing said. She felt that the other party was trying to set a trap for her.

"Don't interrupt me, just listen to what I have to say."

Cao Ruqiong: "...you say."

Lu Changqing continued, "I thought about it for several days after returning to the palace that day. Thinking back to the past few years in the palace, I found that every time I had a conflict with the concubines, Qi Yu's shadow was more or less involved. If he really loved me, he would definitely severely punish those concubines who disrespected me, instead of just picking them up and letting them go easily every time."

"The more I think about it, the more it seems wrong. That emperor didn't want his harem to be harmonious. Why does our emperor want me to fight you? The only explanation is that he wants us to die."

Seeing that Cao Ruqiong looked like he had something to say, Lu Changqing said sympathetically, "You can speak now."

"Why does he want us to die?"

"Because if any of us is killed by the other, the Yan family and the Cao family will definitely fight. Maybe they won't fight to the death, but it will definitely not be a small fight like now."

Cao Ruqiong looked at Lu Changqing suspiciously, "Why are you telling me this? Aren't you afraid that I will tell His Majesty about this?"

"Your Majesty? Who knows if the next Yan family girl who enters the palace will be as brainless as me after I die? Besides, he still needs me to compete with you. He dares not and cannot touch me now."

Lu Changqing pointed at Cao Ruqiong's belly and said, "If you dare to tell him these things, I will dare to tell you your secrets."

Cao Ruqiong felt a chill on his back and his palms began to sweat. "My secret? What secret can I have?"

"Who are the men who can enter and leave the harem at any time without being suspected? Imperial physicians? Imperial guards? Eunuchs?" Lu Changqing smiled slyly, "Madam, do you need me to explain it clearly?"

Cao Ruqiong looked at Lu Changqing with a fierce look, "You actually planted a spy in my palace!"

Lu Changqing shrugged, "You are the same, aren't you? In this huge palace, where are there no members of your Cao family? I'm afraid that even if our Majesty squats in the toilet, there must be someone from your Cao family hiding at the bottom of the pit."

Seeing Cao Ruqiong's murderous face, Lu Changqing comforted him, "I came here today to be frank with you, not to challenge you."

Cao Ruqiong sneered, "Then what are you doing here? Do you think you can use leverage over me to force me to do things for you?"

Lu Changqing raised his finger and shook it, "I'm here to ask for your cooperation. What I want is very simple. I want Qi Yu to die!"

Cao Ruqiong was so angry that he laughed, "You want me to kill the king? This is your cooperation?"

"If he doesn't die, how can the child in your belly take over?"

Cao Ruqiong's eyes widened in shock at Lu Changqing's words, and his voice rose several degrees, "You...are you serious? Do you know what you are talking about?"

Lu Changqing hushed her and asked her to speak more quietly.

"If you don't want to give birth to a child and let your child take your place, why are you looking for a man? Don't tell me you're looking for a man because of love."

Cao Ruqiong looked at Lu Changqing and was silent for a long time before speaking, "Are you really the Yan Weixiu I know?"

Lu Changqing pulled at his face to prove that he was not wearing the legendary human skin mask, "The goods are genuine, and I will not cheat anyone."
