Chapter 76: Concubine is always pregnant (12)

"When you've been away for three days, you should look at me with new eyes. Yan Weixiu, you really make me..."

Lu Changqing raised his eyebrows and continued, "Your eyes are all blind, right?"

Cao Ruqiong paused in feeding the fish, then threw all the fish food in his hand into the pond, took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands, and walked slowly to sit down opposite Lu Changqing.

"what do you want?"

Lu Changqing thought for a moment and said, "I said I want the world to be peaceful and the people to live and work in peace and contentment. Do you believe me?"

Cao Ruqiong shook his head.

Lu Changqing shrugged, "Look, you don't believe me even though I told you."

"How can I believe what you said?"

"You underestimate me, don't you? When you are in a high position in the government, you worry about your ruler. When you are far away from the government, you worry about the people. I am so close to the government, why can't I have such a grand wish?"

Cao Ruqiong had no intention of mocking him, but just calmly stated the fact, "I thought you didn't read on weekdays."

Lu Changqing said as a matter of course: "Who said that? Those travel notes are also books."

Cao Ruqiong smiled softly, lowered his eyes and looked at the black porcelain tea set in the middle of the table, and said, "Since you know that I am after power, how dare you say you will help me? You and I represent our respective families. Aren't you afraid that your father will be so angry that he will want to kill you after he finds out?"

"Family? Ever since my father became a general, the two words I've heard the most are 'responsibility' and 'repaying gratitude'. My father was blinded by power and thought that if he wanted to maintain long-term prosperity and wealth, he had to become a relative of the royal family.

I had hoped to count on this marriage relationship, and if my son could work harder, then there would be no need to worry about the prosperity of my family.

But this tiger father gave birth to a bunch of useless sons who looked down on me, his daughter, and ended up having to put the responsibility of revitalizing the Yan family on my shoulders. If I had the slightest thought of resisting, I would be called an ungrateful person by them. "

Cao Ruqiong asked back: "Isn't it true? Our parents gave birth to us and gave us a life of wealth and luxury that other people would never be able to have. Shouldn't we be grateful to them? Shouldn't we contribute to the family?"

"What about your brothers? Didn't your parents spend more money to raise them? Why don't you see them contributing to the family? All they do every day is eat, drink, play and tease cats and dogs."

"They..." Cao Ruqiong thought of his brothers who were neither good at literature nor martial arts, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Seeing Cao Ruqiong didn't say anything, Lu Changqing continued, "They wanted to have the child of their own accord. I didn't force them to have me. They didn't raise me expecting me to achieve anything. They just wanted me to be a man's favorite toy and to be used as a tool for marriage in the future. Compared to my brothers, what they have invested in me is nothing."

Cao Ruqiong felt that what Lu Changqing said was wrong, and retorted: "It is unfilial for you to think like that."

Lu Changqing was surprised and said, "You actually think that I am unfilial for thinking this way? I thought someone like you who is unfaithful to her husband would understand my thoughts."

Seeing Cao Ruqiong's face darken, Lu Changqing added: "Don't get me wrong, I didn't say there's anything wrong with your behavior. After all, men can have three palaces and six courtyards, so what's wrong with us women doing this?"

It's just that in order to create a vicious female supporting role with extremely low moral sense, the original plot (author) deliberately had Cao Ruqiong find a married man to arouse the readers' anger, so that the protagonists could stand on the moral high ground and tear apart the scumbag and bitch.

"In fact, in my opinion, there is not much difference between a husband and a father. When you are still unmarried, your father is the one who makes the decisions in your life. After you get married, your husband is the one who makes the decisions in your life. After your husband dies, your son is the one who makes the decisions in your life." Lu Changqing sighed, "We women are controlled by these three men all our lives."

"Be the master! What is the master? The master. What is the opposite of the master? The slave, just like the relationship between you, the queen, and the palace maids who serve you. Why do men want us women to learn the "Female Commandments" and learn the three obediences and four virtues? Because they want women to be obedient slaves to them all their lives."

Cao Ruqiong shrank back, with a hint of fear on his face, "You...you are not Yan Weixiu!"

She had been dealing with Yan Weixiu for eight years, and she should have discovered it long ago. How could Yan Weixiu, who could not read or write and was only willing to throw herself at men, have such awareness!

What? Because Qiao Luoluo saw Qi Yu clearly, she actually believed such nonsense before! How many women have appeared in the palace in the past eight years, and she didn't see clearly in eight years. How could she suddenly see clearly because of Qiao Luoluo?

Lu Changqing: ...I am so speechless!

It really can't be blamed on her, because the vicious female characters in these novels are so bad that she was seen through just because she acted a little bit normal.

"Okay, let's be honest. I won't pretend anymore." Lu Changqing cleared his throat, "Actually, I am a fairy who has descended to earth."

Cao Ruqiong's expression was the same as Xie Yuanshuang's at the beginning, with a hint of inexplicable fear in his silence.

The conversation after that was much simpler. Regarding his own origins, Lu Changqing answered what he could, and made up things for what he couldn't.

Regarding the purpose of his trip, Lu Changqing said half-truthfully: "Qiao Luoluo was possessed by a monster. The monster asked her to give birth to a son for Qi Yu and help him regain the imperial power, become a wise ruler, and achieve the achievement of being together for life."

Cao Ruqiong thought he had heard it wrong, and said in disbelief, "A lifetime together?"

Lu Changqing nodded.

"Then what do we do?"

"They are going to take back the imperial power. What do you think we should do?" Lu Changqing made a gesture of wiping his neck. "Given how much he hates Yan Shan and your family, do you think he can still keep us here? If I were him, I would chop off the heads of everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion after the success. I would scald the ant nest with boiling water, shake all the egg yolks apart, and cut all the earthworms vertically, leaving no one alive."

Cao Ruqiong said firmly: "He dare not!"

"Don't dare? Do you think your father has a good reputation among the people? Everyone knows that your father is a corrupt official? He sells official positions, embezzles and accepts bribes, and enriches himself. It is rare for a prime minister to be as corrupt as your father. He claims to be a noble family of scholars, but he does all kinds of shameful things and makes ill-gotten gains. His moral character is even worse than that reckless man Yan Shan!"

Cao Ruqiong angrily slammed his palm on the stone table, "Shut up!"

Lu Changqing sneered, "Are you angry already? Your father is embarrassed to do it, but you are embarrassed to listen to me? Yan Shan let his daughter enter the palace to continue the Yan family's wealth and prosperity. Your father sent you to the palace so that you could ride on the emperor's head and shit, and the emperor would have to praise him for his smooth bowel movements."

"Do you think that as long as you take the position of Queen Mother, your father will devote all his family's strength to help you? Haven't you heard of the story of the emperor using his power to command the disobedient? Haven't you heard of the story of Cao Wei usurping the Han Dynasty? What will you do if your father doesn't return the power to you? Do you think your family will usurp the throne of your child while you are still alive, or after you die? Or will they just kill you and make your child useless, and then let your child abdicate?"

Cao Ruqiong looked at Lu Changqing angrily, "Don't make alarmist remarks here. They are my family members. They won't do this to me."

Wow, I thought she was a sensible person, but I didn’t expect her to be such a filial daughter.

"Family? For power and wealth, a father and son can become enemies, let alone a father and daughter? You treat them as family, but they just treat you as a pawn. Do you believe that your father would allow one of your sisters to enter the palace before the seventh day of your death?"

Lu Changqing patted the stone table in front of him and said, "Wake up! You can see that the relationship between husband and wife is unreliable, so how can you not see that the relationship between father and daughter is equally unreliable? Whether the power is in the hands of the husband or the father, it is not as reassuring as putting it in one's own hands."

Cao Ruqiong knew in her heart that her family only used her as a tool to play a game with the imperial power, but so what? Did they want her to fall out with her father? She didn't believe that the woman in front of her didn't know how important her family's influence was to her and her future children. But this woman still took the trouble to sow discord between her and her family, which made it difficult for her not to suspect that this woman had other purposes.

"You have repeatedly alienated the relationship between me and my father. What is your intention?"

"Do I really need to alienate you from your father? I just want you to be careful of your father and your mother's family. Even if your brothers are all useless, are your nephews and nieces also useless? It is not a good thing for foreign relatives to monopolize power. I don't need to tell you what Wang Mang did."

Cao Ruqiong stiffened his neck and said, "If they can seize the Qi family's kingdom, it is also their ability."

"Yes, your nephews are very capable, but do you know how future generations will evaluate you? Will it be 'The Queen Cao was responsible for the destruction of the prosperous country, and her crime is known to heaven'?" Lu Changqing sneered, "Do you know what the original words are? 'The Queen Yuan was responsible for the destruction of the Western Han Dynasty, and her crime is known to heaven'. It was Wang Mang who usurped the Han Dynasty, but Wang Zhengjun took the blame. Do you know why?"

Cao Ruqiong asked, "Wang Mang was able to accomplish great things because Wang Zhengjun trusted him too much, allowing him to act against his will and steal the power of the country. Isn't this her fault?"

"So what if she favored him? If Wang Mang did not have the intention to usurp the throne, even if Wang Zhengjun favored him to the sky, he would not dare to steal the country. They do not blame Wang Mang for his wolfish ambitions, but criticize Wang Zhengjun in large numbers, accusing her of being too soft-hearted. How ridiculous."

The idiom "woman's kindness" is quite funny. It first appeared in "Records of the Grand Historian". It is obviously used to insult men, but it is used in a way that belittles women.

In the education that Cao Ruqiong received, everyone said that the demise of the Western Han Dynasty was caused by Wang Zhengjun. If she had not been too fond of Wang Mang and fostered his ambitions, the Western Han Dynasty would not have perished so quickly.

But today someone told her that the main reason for the demise of the Western Han Dynasty was Wang Mang.

The scary thing is that she felt what the other person said made sense.

Cao Ruqiong swallowed and asked Lu Changqing an important question, "But if I don't rely on my father, who can I rely on?"

"Depending on the imperial examinations, military power, benevolent governance, a good reputation, and endurance, your father is now over 40 years old. As people age, their bodies are more susceptible to problems. Do you think he can live longer than you?"

Cao Ruqiong smiled coldly, "If military power was so easy to obtain, I wouldn't have to go to Guo Qian."

"Two tigers compete for food, and the hunter is effective. Don't you know that the plan is to make your father fight with Yan Shan and Qi Yu? It would be best if all three parties died together. This way, you can take back the military power, become the queen mother, and weaken the power of Cao's party in the court."

Cao Ruqiong reminded: "My last name is Cao."

"Your last name is Cao? Can you really tell me whether your father considers you a member of the Cao family? Do you know why emperors always call themselves lonely people?"

As Lu Changqing spoke, he picked up the teacup and sprinkled some water on the stone table. Then he used his finger to draw a triangle on the stone table. He continued, "The top of power is like the top of this triangle. It is too small to accommodate only one person. One person is naturally alone."

"With your greedy father the Prime Minister around, if you really want to follow the path of the Queen Mother Regent, then the Cao family will no longer be your firm backing, but an enemy you need to be on guard against at any time." Lu Changqing stood up, not wanting to say more to Cao Ruqiong for the time being, "That's all I have to say, think about it carefully."

The system didn't understand why Lu Changqing wanted to alienate the relationship between Cao Ruqiong and the prime minister. On the way back to the palace, Lu Changqing finally asked.

Lu Changqing replied: "Because Prime Minister Cao is too greedy. For the sake of the country and the people, such a corrupt official cannot be allowed to stay. The most important thing is that I am afraid that Prime Minister Cao will really do something like holding the emperor hostage to control the princes. He wants to do this to his own son-in-law, let alone his married daughter and grandson who can only depend on him."

"Are you really afraid that the Cao family will usurp the throne?"

"Yes."

"So, you not only want to kill Yan Shan, but also Prime Minister Cao?"

"It's not me who wants to kill them, it's Qi Yu who wants to kill them. I'm a love-brained person, and I will definitely lend a helping hand to my dear husband when the time comes."

The system asked: "What should we do now?"

"Wait."

The system asked curiously: "What are you waiting for?"

"Wait until Qiao Luoluo's belly gets bigger, wait until the queen gets pregnant."

This wait lasted for more than a month. Then news came from the harem that the queen was pregnant. Before the concubines in the harem could even feel jealous, the emperor exploded.

Qi Yu smashed everything in his own bedroom. He didn't expect that the queen would dare to cuckold him in public.

The queen of a country is cuckolding the emperor of that country!

Who the hell would believe this if I told them otherwise!

No one in the palace believed it. When the palace maids came to report the news to him, the people who served him congratulated him joyfully. They did not doubt at all why the empress, who had been in the palace for eight years, had not been pregnant before, but became pregnant at this moment.

Chen Huaizhong knelt on the ground tremblingly, and waited until Qi Yu finished venting his anger and heard him calling his name, then he crawled on his knees to the other's feet.

Qi Yu sat on the bed and looked at Chen Huaizhong who was kneeling at his feet, and asked: "Huaizhong, do you think the baby in the queen's belly is mine?"

When Chen Huaizhong heard this, he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.

What did the emperor mean by this? Did he suspect the queen of having an affair with a stranger?

But how is this possible? The queen must have been so bold as to do such a thing to deceive the emperor and defile the harem.

Chen Huaizhong prostrated himself on the ground, trembling, and said, "Your Majesty...Your Majesty believes that the child in the Queen's belly must be a dragon seed."

Qi Yu's voice was so cold that water could almost drip out of it, "Why?"

Chen Huaizhong was even more frightened. He swallowed his saliva and thought for a long time before saying, "Qiao Shuyi can bear children for your majesty, so the queen can do the same."

Qi Yu could no longer hold back his anger, and kicked Chen Huaizhong over, cursing, "You dog slave, how can Cao Ruqiong, that bitch, be compared to Luo Luo!"
