Reborn to raise a baby, Princess Heng has become stronger

Meng Yunshang had never seen such a shameless Zuo Youran.

She couldn't help but hold her forehead with her hand. "You have said these words many times. Can you please stop saying them? If someone doesn't know me, they would think I invited you to promote myself."

"Well, we have this ability, so we must let people know."

"Cousin, you don't know that everyone in the capital likes to flatter the powerful and bully the weak. Only when you are strong enough for them to be afraid of you, will they respect you. Otherwise, the words behind your back will be unpleasant to hear."

"Just like Cui Linlang, even though she seems to care about you on the surface, she actually has a lot of ulterior motives in her mind."

Meng Yunshang gestured to her, "Tell me about it?"

Zuo Youran was very excited when she saw that her words finally caught Meng Yunshang's attention.

He asked Meng Yunshang mysteriously, "Just now when we were having tea, I accidentally heard two girls from the Cui family chatting. Guess what they were talking about?"

"Ok?"

"They said that after today, the Cui family will be able to rise above the rest of the world, and that their young lady is destined to be a noblewoman. When one of them succeeds, all the members of the Cui family will rise to prominence."

"I didn't understand what this meant at first, until I saw the emperor coming, and suddenly I understood. The Cui family's appointment to Cui Cheng was fake, and the real purpose was to give Cui Linlang to the emperor as a concubine under the pretext of the plum blossom viewing banquet."

"The Queen Mother is from the Wen family, and she had previously intended to marry Wen Liuli to the Emperor. As Wen Liuli's sister, Wen Linglong is likely to become a thorn in Cui Linlang's side."

"So, cousin, you were right to keep Wen Linglong away from Cui Linlang. Who knows if she will turn her knife against us just for a place in the harem?"

Wen Linglong was startled. Zuo Youran’s reminder came unexpectedly, but was easy to understand.

In addition, Meng Yunshang gave a special reminder before leaving the house.

She now almost understood what the Wen family and the Queen Mother were planning.

I feel so angry that my teeth are itching.

She hated herself for being born in the Wen family, and hated herself even more for knowing that the Queen Mother and the Wen family were going too far, but still couldn't protect herself.

"Princess..." Wen Linglong turned to Meng Yunshang for help in grief and anger, her voice very low and hoarse.

"Don't worry, the prince and I are here and will not let you go against your own wishes."

This is the sister-in-law chosen by my eldest brother himself.

She said she would protect her elder brother no matter what.

"Thank you!" Wen Linglong thanked with tears in her eyes.

Meng Yunshang nodded lightly, then frowned and thought deeply.

She found the answer to the problem that she had been unable to figure out from Zuo Youran.

The Queen Mother would not approach the Cui family for no reason, and it is even more impossible for the Cui family to help the Queen Mother offend Emperor Yuan Qing for no reason.

It turned out that the Queen Mother had promised a lot of benefits, one of which was to allow the daughter of the Cui family to enter the palace as a concubine.

But does Cui Cheng know about this?

If he knew, then he was trying to play a trick on the opponent and get the best of both worlds?

*

The distance from the gate to the plum garden is not short, and along the way Cui Chen deliberately introduced the Cui family house to Emperor Yuan Qing.

But there was no chance to interrupt because Cui Linlang kept talking.

And from time to time he would move closer to Emperor Yuan Qing.

Not only he noticed this, but Emperor Yuan Qing and Lu Chenxiao also clearly felt Cui Linlang's enthusiasm.

Lu Chenxiao had a sullen face the whole time.

Emperor Yuan Qing looked at Cui Linlang thoughtfully for several times.

After arriving at the Plum Garden, Cui Chen invited them to the warm room to rest for a while.

Cui Linlang wanted to use the opportunity of serving tea and water to show off her presence, but was pulled away by Cui Chen who could no longer tolerate her.

Emperor Yuan Qing teased Lu Chenxiao cheerfully, "Could the girl from the Cui family be your flirt, Xiao? Your princess is watching from behind, so be careful."

Lu Chenxiao: "..."

He is really a good brother, afraid that his backyard might catch fire?

"But speaking of it, this girl from the Cui family is cute, but she's cunning. Xiao, can you really stand it?"

The veins on Lu Chenxiao's forehead were throbbing. "Is it possible that she came for you? After all, you are a single fat sheep today."

Emperor Yuan Qing was amused by his talk of being a single fat sheep, "Not really, I'm just here to join in the fun, the main attraction is Cui Chen."

Lu Chenxiao laughed in his heart, but he tried very seriously on the surface.

"I heard that the Cui family invited most of the capital, and all of them are young and ready-to-be-married ladies in the capital. If you are interested, it is not impossible to bring a few back to the palace."

Emperor Yuan Qing waved his hand and said, "No, how can a monarch seize the court of his subjects? If it gets out, it will be a disgrace."

"I didn't ask you to favor someone in the Cui family. You can take a look at each other first."

Given their mother's personality, if the emperor doesn't pick a few of those who came today, no one will have peace for some time to come.

In order to ensure a peaceful life for their family of three, they had to sacrifice their brother, since he was a kind-hearted man.

Emperor Yuan Qing, who was accused of being philanthropic, thought about it and refused, "That won't work. When I look at these women now, I will think of those unnamed beauties in the harem."

And they were all beauties who had been abused by that beast Lu Yuanjing in his name.

Many of them have been conferred titles as concubines or noble ladies.

Lu Chenxiao: "..."

Very well, we can’t continue the conversation on this topic.

"You can't leave the harem empty, or else those old men will bother you again during the morning court."

Speaking of this, Emperor Yuan Qing couldn't help but frown.

He didn't care how many ears were outside the warm room and just kept talking to Lu Chenxiao crazily.

"Why are they so bored every day?"

"They want to control my taking concubines, and they want to control my favoritism even more. My not having a son is like digging up their ancestors' graves. Then, should I let them know whether I can go to the toilet smoothly or not?"

"I see they are getting bored day by day, they have no skills, but they just like to talk nonsense! I might as well change their names. Don't call them censors anymore, just call them rat shit."

Lu Chenxiao: "..."

What had he done wrong to deserve to be here listening to this shit and fart?

……

However, after Emperor Yuan Qing finally calmed down, he still calmly gave advice, "Marry Cui Linlang, and you will have some peace and quiet for a while."

Emperor Yuan Qing declined, "Forget it, I don't want to raise another Chen family."

Back then, the Chen family became increasingly arrogant and lost themselves after Chen entered the palace as queen.

Having finally gotten rid of those pests, there was no way he could go back to the old path he had taken a few years ago.

Lu Chenxiao was not surprised by his answer, but reminded him very experiencedly, "Given your mother's personality, she won't let your harem be empty for too long. You should also prepare yourself early."

"I do have someone I particularly want, but it depends on whether your wife is willing."

Lu Chenxiao's eyes instantly became like cold blades, stabbing towards Emperor Yuan Qing opposite him.

Do you want to listen to what you are saying!

Emperor Yuan Qing realized that what he said was inappropriate, and quickly explained, "Don't get me wrong, I just want to ask your wife for someone."

"who?"

Lu Chenxiao did not relax his frown.

When Meng Yunshang heard this outside the door, she hurriedly stopped and made a gesture to Zuo Youran and Wen Linglong who were following closely behind her.

The two of them stopped ten steps away, and she tiptoed forward.
